Exercise: Zoning for different visitor experiences
Working in small groups, identify the range of potential different visitor experiences in
your MPA. Then, using the accompanying zoning matrix handout, create a series of
different potential management zones. How do these compare to actual zones in the

any potentially valuable experiences/uses that do not have a “home”? How do visitor
experiences relate to existing or potential resident use of the same areas?
