Coral reefs are a major attraction in many WIO MPAs for tourists and local visitors. Reef-related activities encourage people to take an active interest in the MPA and perhaps subsequently support it, by giving funds or volunteering. This sheet addresses the main visitor activities that involve this ecosystem and provides guidance on how they should be managed.
