These 5 spots are a small part of a system of 24 Marine National Parks and Sanctuaries created to preserve our distinct marine environment and support more than 12,000 known species of flora and fauna. These areas are highly protected and all fishing or collecting is prohibited. When in the water help us care for these spots by practicing minimal impact diving and snorkelling techniques.
