Amorgos FRA – Gramvousa Islet Fisheries Restricted Area
What this zone is
Overview
How spearfishing is treated at Amorgos FRA – Gramvousa Islet Fisheries Restricted Area.
One of three year-round no-fishing zones established around Amorgos by Presidential Decree No. 73 (Government Gazette No. 148, 18 August 2025), under the fisher-led Amorgorama conservation initiative. The zone covers the waters around the small uninhabited islet of Gramvousa (Gramvoussa) off the south-west tip of Amorgos near Kalotaritissa bay. All fishing – commercial and recreational, including spearfishing – is permanently prohibited within the designated zone. Together with the Nikouria and Katapola zones, these three FRAs form the first fisher-proposed marine conservation reserve in the Cyclades.
