What this zone is
Overview
How spearfishing is treated at Reserva Natural Turística Punta Loma.
Provincial fauna reserve in Chubut (Biedma dept), on Golfo Nuevo near Puerto Madryn. Created 1967 (Provincial Law 697/67) — one of the country's oldest/smallest fauna reserves. Protects a permanent single-haired sea lion (Otaria flavescens) haul-out and seabird nesting colonies. As a wildlife protected area focused on marine-mammal and seabird colonies, extractive activities such as spearfishing are not permitted.
