Welcome to Cyprus Marine Life
Cyprus Marine Life is dedicated to showcasing the captivating marine life of Cyprus through our photography. With a deep passion for the sea, we aim to bring the beauty of the marine ecosystem in Cyprus to the surface, allowing others to experience its wonders through our lens. Visualizing the magic of the ecosystem would hopefully raise public awareness and assist the international efforts to "Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development" - UN "Sustainable Development Goals" No 14.
Taxonomy
According to the Linnean classification system for living things, published in the 18th century by Carl Linnaeus, there are 7 hierarchical categories in grouping organisms. For the purpose of this website, and aiming to keep navigation simple, we adopt Phylum in grouping the marine life subjects A brief inside to the 9 Phyla adopted initially is provided below with access to photos of the amazing world of each Phyla.
