Western Port - Cherished and Challenged

Western Port - Cherished and Challenged is a documentary hosted, directed, and produced by the late John Clarke for the Western Port Seagrass Partnership.

Western Port is an area situated to the south east of Melbourne along the southern coast of Victoria. This is an area of unique diversity featuring 70% of the plant and animal life that is native to Victoria. Western Port is currently under threat from a number of sources including sediments from catchment and coastal erosion and climate change.
