		Certainly the general conduct of the priory inmates on Lihou seemed to be not very exemplary and in 1484 the prior was charged with heresy by the Abbot of Mont-St-Michel.

		The Lihou Reef National Nature Reserve (Reserve) is one of two protected areas in the Coral Sea region.
		It is clear that the reefs of the Lihou Reef National Nature Reserve are under significant pressure, especially from the effects of coral bleaching and cyclones.
		This highlights the importance of maintaining a proportion of the reefs in the region as strict nature reserves (at present: Coringa-Herald NNR and Lihou Reef NNR) in an attempt to maintain the long-term viability of these habitats, ecosystems and native species, by preventing additional human impacts.

		Two of the cays of Lihou Reef have scientific installations installed: there is an automatic weather station on Turtle Islet (at the north-western end of the lagoon) and off the eastern tip of the reef a solar-powered navigation beacon has been set up.
