Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary in California, extending over 15,744 square kilometers

Several other types of marine protected areas exist in the United States and other countries The National Estuarine Research Reserve System, managed by the United States government, includes 23 designated and protected estuaries Outside the United States, marine protected-area programs exist as marine parks, reserves, and preserves Over 100 designated areas exist around the periphery of the Caribbean Sea Others range from the well-known Australian Great Barrer Reef Marine Park to lesser-known parks in countries such as Thailand and Indonesia, where tourism is placing growing pressures on fragile coral reef systems As state, national, and international agencies come to recognize the importance of conserving marine biodiversity, marine projected areas whether as sanctuaries, parks, or estuarine reserves, will play an increasingly important role in preserving that diversity
