 BALI
MARINE PARK |
| The Government
of Indonesia has declared 24 marine protected
areas throughout the country. There are
plans to expand this to 85 reserves covering
30 million hectares by the end of this century.
Recent initiatives include
plans for the management of important marine
habitants such as coral reefs and mangroves
for sustainable use and conservation. Marine
animals are also benefiting from marine
conservation efforts. Recent laws have banned
the hunting of most turtles throughout the
country. |

THE
REEF WATCH PROGRAM |
| Not only will you enjoy your
day trip to Lembongan Island with Bali Hai
Cruises, but you also have the opportunity
to become involved in our reef watch program
at the Reef Appreciation Area. Bali Hai Cruises
has recognised the importance and uniqueness
of the Lembongan Island Reef and are supporting
the Indonesian Government in protecting and
managing the reef. To firm our commitment
to conservation, Bali Hai Cruises employs
a marine biologist to monitor the reef, suggest
new ways it can be managed and develop ways
that you can learn more about the marine life
and fish. The cruises and activities at the
Island are designed to create as little disturbance
as possible to marine life. Bali Hai Cruises
is a member of and supports the Marine Education
Society of Australia. |
