dc.description.abstractTunku Abdul Rahman Park (TARP) is the first Marine Protected Area gazetted in Sabah, Malaysia in 1974. TARP has been flooded by tourists receiving more than 500,000 tourists in 2018 and 2019. It is clear that tourism activity in TARP is one of the major contributions to anthropogenic disturbance. In this study, we assessed the level of awareness and knowledge of the marine environment among tourists in TARP. Briefings by tour guides or companies were also assessed.
