Comprehensive survey results on the environment state of seashore wetland in the Pearl River Estuary in 2007 and 2008 show that seashore wetland degradation mainly includes four aspects: area reduction of natural wetland, declining productivity of wetland, continuing deterioration of wetland environment, and wetland landscape fragmentation. Degradation causes of the Pearl River Estuary seashore wetland mainly consist of beach development and reclamation, emissions, husbandry, sea-level rise, overfishing, sea sand exploitation, port construction, and water resource development, among others. It is imperative to take protective measures. In this paper, seven measures are present, including strengthening relevant laws and regulations to protect seashore wetland, implementing strategy of sustainable development, making medium-long term layout, cultivating personnel through training improving research and technology, building measuring system, setting up more protection areas, and increasing education of the mass. All these provide an important basis for the development, utilization, and protection of the Pearl River Estuary seashore wetland.%2007年和2008年秋季对珠江口滨海湿地进行了环境现状综合调查,结果表明,珠江口滨海湿地退化主要表现在4个方面:天然湿地面积减少、湿地生产力不断下降、湿地环境状况持续恶化和湿地景观破碎化.珠江口滨海湿地退化的原因主要为滩涂开发与围填海、污染物排放、养殖污染、海平面上升、过度捕捞、海砂开采和港口码头建设以及水土资源开发等因素.滨海湿地保护与利用对策主要有:制定有关滨海湿地保护的法律法规和湿地保护与利用规划；加强人才队伍建设和滨海湿地有关技术研究；建立滨海湿地动态监测体系；加大滨海湿地保护区建设的力度；加强宣传和教育.
