What this zone is
Overview
How spearfishing is treated at Zinoa Marine Conservation Area.
Small marine conservation area (~1.5 km2) near Zinoa Island, Choiseul Province, containing two small islands and associated coral reefs managed for conservation; harvesting restricted. Boundary caveat: the drawn outline is the WDPA record (555547866), whose geometry covers only about 0.09 km2 — the islet and its immediate fringe — against the reserve's reported 1.45 km2, so it must not be read as the outer limit of the conservation area. The coordinate is a point 72 m seaward of the islet's shoreline, inside that boundary.
