Managers of protected natural areas must worry with many tasks linked to public use: recreation, scientific researches and ecosystem services. However are they able to see the relationship between public use and conservation? And what is their knowledge level about this topic? Considering these issues, our objective with this research was to analyze the Conservation Units of Integral Protection managed by the State of Santa Catarina, Brazil, manager’s perception when it comes to public use of conservation of these areas. Thus, we choose to use online forms to discover the opinion of ten protected area’s managers from the Santa Catarina state (representing 100% of the state’s protected areas with full protection managed at state level). All of the managers agreed that the different kinds of public use have great importance towards conserving their areas and they understand what each type of public use means, and their role to the parks and reserves, but they also agree that more publicity towards the topic is necessary. This is important for helping them decide what the best alternatives for managing are. For example, increasing visitation or implementing payments for ecosystem services provided. We discuss how this method can be replicated in other protected areas, complementary to other pre-existing diagnostic tools.
