The marine environment fosters diverse economic activities including commercial fishing, angling and water sports. Renewable energy generation is increasingly regarded as having economic potential on the peninsula. There is a small \u2018office and commercial\u2019 market and significant self-employment.\u00a0 The interests of each sector must be balanced with the need to protect the special environmental qualities and distinctive character of the peninsula.<\/p>\n
