With a coastline of 2798 kilometres and a rich history of seafaring, South Africa is truly a maritime nation. The South African Maritime Safety Authority (SAMSA) is the custodian of South African seas and the champion of the nation's maritime traditions.
SAMSA was founded in 1998 with the following responsibilities:
To ensure the safety of life and property at sea
To prevent pollution of the marine environment by naval activity
To promote South Africa as a maritime nation
The organisation's tag line "SAFE SHIPS . CLEAN SEAS" clearly and simply epitomises its duties as South Africa's maritime safety authority.
