The NAS is dedicated to advancing education in nautical archaeology at all levels; to improving techniques in recording, conservation and reporting; and to encouraging the participation of members of the public at all stages.
 
The society aims to preserve our archaeological heritage in the marine environment, by acting as a focus for coastal and marine archaeology.

To do this we need to involve everyone - divers and non-divers, scientists, historians and anyone with an interest. Our underwater heritage is not renewable, and is at constant threat from natural and human.

If you would like to make a donation to support the NAS’s work you can do so in a variety of ways.

However you choose to support our work, we are extremely grateful. Our outreach activities are reliant on voluntary donations and every penny really does count! Thank you.
