Abstract：The establishment of marine protected areas is an important measure for the protection of marine biodiversity and the marine sustainable development.This paper refined the international experiences by choosing the typical marine protected areas and systems as the cases,including National System of Marine Protected Areas of the United States,National Marine Conservation Area System of Canada,Great Barrier Reef Marine Park in Australia,Apo Island Marine Protected area in Philippines,and Protection of the Marine Environment of the North-East Atlantic Network of Marine Protected Areas.A qualified marine protected area need effective guidance,supervision and management,with the characteristics of profession,execution and stability.In order to promote marine sustainable development in China,we proposed policy suggestions according to the practical situation.At the national level,a well-planned marine protected area system plan need to be listed the marine and marine life that must be protected,and coordinate the long-time management of the national marine protected areas.The coastal provinces should cooperate with the nation to establish national marine protected areas,as well as provincial marine protected areas.The marine protected areas should protect and manage these areas.The professional staff could also be educated and trained by the local communities to participate the management practice.This paper hopes to provide references for marine protection and sustainable development and utilization in China by analyzing the international experiences of marine protected area.
