Protected area notice

This spot is inside or next to a protected area. The boundary alone does not mean fishing is banned; the rules of that zone decide.

Golfe du Lion koruma alanı sınırları içinde. Alanın kuralı ve gerekiyorsa izin kontrol edilmeli; alan sınırı tek başına avın yasak olduğu anlamına gelmez.
