Coral reefs are one of the most productive and richest ecosystems on earth. Coral reefs provide enormous benefits for millions of coastal communities. However, coral reefs face a range of threats including overfishing, coastal development, damage due to shipping lines. The problem that will be discussed in this paper is how regulations in Indonesia regulate and protect coral reefs? and how to prevent damage to coral reefs caused by humans?. This research is normative legal research, using a statutory approach and case approach. The collected data were analyzed qualitatively, then described to answer the problems in this study. The results showed that Indonesia already has several national regulations governing and protecting coral reefs in Indonesia. as an implementation of these various rules, the Indonesian government has launched a coral reef rescue program, also known as the "Coral Reef Rehabilitation and Management Program".
