Home›National Park›Marine or Terrestrial›Coastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Browse ByCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)This dimension marks whether a protected area is marine or terrestrial. Wikipedia notes that, at sea, "there are 14,688 Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), covering approximately 10.2% of coastal and marine areas and 4.12% of global ocean areas," a realm entirely separate from protection on land. Browsing by realm keeps ocean reserves apart from land based parks and reserves.FactsCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)SourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonIUCN Category CodeWell-attestedII - National Park 1Coastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Filter Results25 entriesIUCN CategoryAllNational Parks of Africa (1)National Parks of Asia (2)National Parks of Denmark (1)National Parks of Europe (17)National Parks of Greece (2)National Parks of Italy (3)National Parks of Latvia (1)National Parks of Lithuania (1)National Parks of North America (2)National Parks of Norway (6)National Parks of South America (2)National Parks of Spain (1)National Parks of the Caribbean and Central America (1)National Parks of the Netherlands (1)National Parks of the United Kingdom (1)National Designation TypeAllBiosphere Reserve (1)National Park (14)ContinentAllAfrica (1)Asia (1)Europe (12)North America (3)South America (2)CountryAllCanada (1)Costa Rica (1)India (1)Italy (3)Japan (1)Netherlands (1)Norway (3)South Africa (1)Spain (1)United Kingdom (1)United States (1)Venezuela (2)Establishment EraAll1934 (1)1947 (1)1951 (1)1973 (1)1974 (1)1978 (1)1984 (1)1994 (1)1998 (1)1999 (1)2012 (1)Area BandAll38.600000 (1)43.000000 (1)56.000000 (1)201.460000 (1)221.000000 (1)243.920000 (1)245.660000 (1)908.000000 (1)949.350000 (1)1330.100000 (1)2130.000000 (1)2192.000000 (1)6106.610000 (1)9128.000000 (1)Managing AuthorityAllDirectorate for Nature Management (3)Directorate of Forests, Government of West Bengal, India (1)Gwaii Haanas Archipelago Management Board (1)INPARQUES (1)Instituto Nacional de Parques (INPARQUES) (1)Ministero dell'Ambiente (3)Ministry of the Environment (Japan) (1)National System of Conservation Areas (SINAC) (1)Norwegian Environment Agency (2)Snowdonia National Park Authority (1)South African National Parks (1)Staatsbosbeheer & Dutch Ministry of Defence (1)US National Park Service (1)Governance TypeAllGovernance by Government (18)International DesignationAllRamsar Site (Wetland of International Importance) (4)UNESCO Biosphere Reserve (2)UNESCO World Heritage Site (5)BrowseCompareSelect all 25Anderdalen National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Cabrera Archipelago Maritime-Terrestrial National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Cahuita National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Cinque Terre National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Circeo National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Curonian Spit National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Duinen van Texel National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Everglades National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Gwaii Haanas National Park ReserveCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Ķemeri National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)La Maddalena Archipelago National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Lofotodden National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Médanos de Coro National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Mochima National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Mols Bjerge National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Moysalen National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Nordre Isfjorden National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Raet National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Saltfjellet-Svartisen National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Schinias-Marathon National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Snowdonia National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Sounio National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Sundarbans National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Table Mountain National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Yakushima National ParkCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial)Sources1.
