The marine protected area status was designated in 2013. It is an extremely popular fundraising project with an almost cult-like following.

As the national bird of Namibia, Zambia, and Zimbabwe, the African Fish Eagle is usually very busy whenever it stays in these countries, giving speeches, opening shopping centers, etc. So, it sometimes comes to South Africa to relax and enjoy relative anonymity. It is near a river, attracting some birds that like to eat wet food.
