Friend of the Sea is a non-profit non-governmental organization (NGO) for the conservation of marine habitat by means of market incentives. Friend of the Sea has created a project to certify and promote seafood and products from sustainable fisheries and aquaculture.

Friend of the Sea originates from the Earth Island Institute’s Dolphin-Safe Project, the precursor of all sustainable seafood certification schemes. The Dolphin-Safe Project has saved millionsof dolphins from getting killed by the tuna fishery in the Eastern Tropical Pacific.

Friend of the Sea has deployed a network of onsite monitors which continuously verify the sustainable origin of the certified products and that no mixing occurs.

Monitors from Costa Rica, Indonesia, Morocco, Panama, Philippines and Sri Lanka, constantly spot-check vessels, harbors, aquaculture sites, warehouses and processing sites.

Friend of the Sea is the only scheme of its kind to ensure full time on site origin verification, providing further guarantee for retailers and consumers.

Friend of the Sea follows the FAO Guidelines for the eco-labeling of Fish and Fishery Products from Marine Capture Fisheries . In particular, Friend of the Sea Criteria fulfill also Art 30 of the Guidelines, allowing certification only of products from not overexploited stocks.

Friend of the Sea is the only scheme in the world which can certify, with the same seal of approval, products both farmed and wild-caught.

It is currently the main sustainable seafood certification scheme in the world, having assessed more than 10 million MT of wild-catch and 500 thousand MT of farmed products.

Sustainable products and their origins are audited onsite by accredited independent certification bodies (Aqa, Bureau Veritas, CSQA, FCI, SGS, RINA), against Friend of the Sea criteria.
