Navassa Island National Wildlife Refuge protects coral reef ecosystems, native wildlife and plants, and provides opportunities for scientific research on and around Navassa Island (see that article for the territorial history of Navassa). The National Wildlife Refuge is located 35 miles (56 km) west of the Tiburon Peninsula of Haiti. The refuge encompasses 1,344 acres (5.44 km2) of land and a 12 nautical mile (22.2 km) radius of marine habitat around the island.
Navassa Island features large seabird colonies including over 5,000 nesting Red-footed Booby (Sula sula). Navassa is home to four endemic lizard species including two, Cyclura cornuta onchiopsis and Leicocephalus erimitus, thought to be extinct before rediscovery in 1998.
Navassa Island NWR is administered as part of the Caribbean Islands National Wildlife complex. Due to hazardous coastal conditions, and for preservation of species habitat, the refuge is closed to the public.
