Marine protected areas are geographically distinct zones for safeguarding biodiversity, maintaining marine ecosystem health and the supply of ecosystem services. Marine protected areas operate at various scales and cover a range of protection levels and conservation objectives.
This dataset includes the delineation of marine protected areas in EEA marine assessment areas of the EU marine waters. The marine protected areas are those established under the framework of the EU nature directives (Natura 2000), Nationally designates areas (CDDA), and the Regional Sea Conventions (RSC) as reported in the respective official spatial and tabular databases. The data is reported until March 2022.
