This study was conducted between November 2011 and January 2012 and deals with the environmental perception of residents, fishermen, tourists and workers linked to tourism services in the city of Baía da Traição-PB; considering anthropocentric, ecocentric and apathy issues, related to different usages (and motivations) of reef environment, saving water and garbage disposal. Adopts perspectives linked to themes as management, development versus environmental preservation and education. Also describes the socioeconomic profile of each class. The main objective is to meet environmental perception of social actors involved and get grant for construction of a shared sustainable management plan. For this to realize, we interviewed 967 people randomly and 50.6% of them was male and 49.4% was female, during the high season (November 2011 to January 2012). The results show that the most representative class of individuals have between 21 and 30 years, with schooling corresponding to the high school and monthly income around 1 minimum wage. In all categories, most respondents said the coastal reefs from the city are important because they carry protection from high tides, but agree with tourism access to the environment. Residents and workers attend the reef environment for reasons such as sports and contemplation. In general, respondents think that environmental management should be a responsibility of all those who use the environment; declared conserve water in their household activities because they think it s better to future generations, but do not separate the waste produced at home mainly because there is no selective collection in where they live. Do not agree that tourism development is more important than the preservation of the environment, and almost unanimously consider environmental education as an important tool for environmental preservation and improving the quality of people s life. Residents and workers established an ecocentric relationship with the environment as fishermen and tourists are anthropocentric. The information obtained in this study provides indicatives that enable adoption of Public Policies, based on the construction of an environmental management plan which considers environmental resources usage in a sustainable manner and quality of life.
