Fagatele Bay National Marine Sanctuary is the smallest and most remote of the Nation’s National Marine Sanctuaries, but its coral reefs may have the highest marine-life diversity in the sanctuary system. Formed by an extinct volcano, the bay’s habitats are home to a bewildering variety of tropical fish, invertebrates and algae.
Designated in 1985, Fagatele Bay National Marine Sanctuary is co-administered by the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the American Samoa Department of Commerce.
