The escalating loss and degradation of coastal habitats significantly affect coastal communities, ocean biodiversity, and planetary health. A special Collection launched in npj Ocean Sustainability on “Bridging Land and Seascape Restoration for Ecoscape Recovery” aimed to establish a widely applicable foundation for scalable approaches that support integrated multi-habitat coastal ecosystem restoration and recovery. In this Editorial, we define the concept of “ecoscape restoration” and highlight the key themes emerging from the Collection.
