The Maritime Captaincy defines the new exclusion zone half a nautical mile from the coast between La Bombilla and San Borondón. In addition, this exclusion area could be adjusted again once a new bathymetry is carried out by the Spanish Institute of Oceanography. With this reduction, fishing activity in the area can be reactivated since the new delimitation only affects demersal fishing.
