Abstract : This study determined the level of management of marine protected area in Bacacay, Albay. Specifically, it answered the following questions: 1. What components of marine protected areas are managed in Bacacay, Albay?; 2. What is the level of management of marine protected areas along administration; habitat protection; sustainability exploration; rehabilitation; and promotion of tourism economic management?; 3. What are the challenges encountered in the management of marine protected areas?; and 4. What intervention plan may be proposed to address the challenges encountered in the area of management? The researcher employed the descriptive-survey type of research. The study has a total of one hundred (100) respondents which is the primary source of data. Frequency count, percentage, weighted mean and ranking were the statistical measures applied in this paper.
