Prohibited zonenature park / marine no-take zone

What this zone is

Overview

How spearfishing is treated at Lastovo Islands Nature Park (Lastovsko otočje).

Lastovo Islands Nature Park (Park prirode Lastovsko otočje), an archipelago of 46 islands/islets ~14 km south of Korčula with 143 km² of marine area. The park contains many no-take marine zones forming a protected band around the coast (seagrass meadows). Amateur fishing is not allowed in the park area; the same special ordinance on fishing in protected areas (Telašćica & Lastovo) applies, so spearfishing is prohibited in the no-take zones and otherwise tightly restricted under the park's public institution.
