Moreton Bay Marine Park was first declared in 1993 to protect its unique values and high biodiversity while still allowing people to use it.
The marine park covers 3400km2 and stretches 125km from Caloundra to the Gold Coast.
It takes in most of the bay's tidal waters, including many river estuaries and extends seawards to the limit of Queensland waters.
