Abstract

A study conducted in South Coast, Kenya to determine the factors that influence the harvesting of fish in the area, assess the changes that have occurred in local fishing practices and their socioeconomic impacts; establish stakeholder characteristics in relation to changing fishing practices; and identify the winners and losers in the changing fisheries management regimes. Information and data were collected from four sites, namely Vanga, Shimoni, Msambweni and Gazi. It was established that changing fishing practices in the area have led to over-exploitation of the fish stocks from the coral reefs.
