Marine Protected Areas are areas where human activities in certain marine environments have been limited to protect the environment and its inhabitants. This can be important because it seeks to protect the organisms and ecosystem of the marine environment, reduces pollution to the marine environment, preserves a marine environment for future use, and can also maintain the aesthetics of a marine environment. These are all factors which are related to conservation and preservation of an ecosystem or environmental area which are the main purposes of Marine Protected Areas.
