Marine Protected Areas perform three key functions: preserving marine biodiversity, con-tributing to the local economy, supporting sustainable tourism enjoyment processes. In Italy, MPAs are created both for the preservation of naturalistic landscapes and as an environmental education device. This essay considers the case of the Submerged Marine Park of Gaiola in Naples by exploring, through the ethnographic approach, the socio-cultural implications that shape a relationship between visitors, environmental protection and tourist practice.

Keywords: Marine Protected Areas, sustainable tourism, Submerged Marine Park, visitors, tourists, zoning.
