The Natural Park of the Coral Sea is a vast protected area housing an exceptional biodiversity as well as still unknown ecosystems which are the subjects of numerous scientific research.  Since 2014, any activity that is scientific in nature or related to the monitoring of the environment must obtain a governmental authorization before proceeding. The government then works in partnership with scientists. This collaboration contributes to enhancing the awareness and the management of the Natural Park.
