The ecosystem of island is unique but fragile.Building and managing island protected area is of vital significance in maintaining the balance of island ecosystem,and promoting sustainable utilization of island resources and environment.The development and distribution situation of island protected areas in China were analyzed in the paper.By the end of 2011,117 island protected areas had been established in China,and a system of island protected area has been preliminarily formed in China up to now.A distribution map of the island protected areas in China was drawn based on GIS.The characteristics of type,geographical distributions and departments in charge of these protected areas were also analyzed respectively.At present,there are still some problems existing in the establishment and management of island protected areas,such as the conflict between protection and development,limited funding channels,and inefficient management.In the end,some management countermeasures based on these problems were put forward.
