Doğal ve kültürel kaynak değerleriyle ön plana çıkan milli parklar, insanlar tarafından gittikçe daha fazla ziyaret edilen mekânların başında yer almaktadır. Milli parklara olan turistik talebin artması milli parkların daha fazla korunmasına yönelik faaliyetleri beraberinde getirmektedir. Milli parkların korunması doğal kaynakların devamlılığı açısından hem ulusal hem de yerel ölçekte önem taşımaktadır. Özellikle korunması gereken bir alanın milli park ilan edilmesi, milli park çevresinde yaşayan yerel halkın koruma kullanma dengesini değiştirdiği için bu durum yerel halk tarafından kimi zaman olumsuz algılanabilmektedir. Bu araştırmada, İğneada yerel halkının milli parklara yönelik farkındalıkları ve İğneada Longoz Ormanları Milli Parkı’na ilişkin görüş ve düşünceleri belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Araştırmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden durum çalışması deseni kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın katılımcılarını İğneada yerel halkından 35 kişi oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda, araştırmaya katılan yerel halkın milli park kavramına ve milli parkları koruma kurallarına ilişkin bilgi sahibi oldukları, gelecek nesiller için milli parkların önemini doğal güzelliklerin devamı şeklinde ifade ettikleri, Longoz Ormanları’nın milli park ilan edilmesiyle birlikte artan yasaklardan ve Longoz Ormanları Milli Parkı’na yönelik gerçekleşen turistik faaliyetlerin çevreye verdiği zarardan rahatsızlık duydukları ve Longoz Ormanları’nın milli park ilan edilmesinin yerel halka ekonomik anlamda fayda sağladığını düşündükleri tespit edilmiştir.
