The samples of the survey were chosen from twelve elementary schools in Taoyuan county. Totally 448 effective samples were collected and the raw sample data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé method, and Pearson’s product-moment correlation. According to the results of statistic analysis, the conclusions of this study can be drawn as follows: 1.Teachers have shown distinct concept toward the marine environmental protection. 2.In general, marine environmental protection behavior of elementary school teachers is found to be positive. 3.Significant differences of the concept on the marine environmental protection are found among the teachers’ gender. However, teachers’ school location, gender, age, duty, seniority, education level, and major （in Natutural Science or not）reveal no significant effect on concept and behavior differences toward the marine environmental protection. 4.There is a significant correlation between teachers’ marine environmental protection concept and behavior. It is shown the better the concept they owned, the more positive behavior they have.
