Marine area, new rules: goodbye jet skis and underwater fishing in Chia
Limits and prohibitions (also for wind farms) along the coast of Domus de Maria, diving and dinghy rental only if authorizedVideo di Marco Noce
Jet skis, water skiing, inflatables towed by motor vehicles? Not allowed. Spearfishing? Not allowed. Trawling? Least of all. These are the rules of the Capo Spartivento Marine Protected Area, which as soon as it becomes operational will protect the entire coast of Domus de Maria, including Chia, Su Giudeu and Cala Cipolla.
From the borders with Pinus Village (Pula) almost up to Perda Longa (Teulada) for mooring, passenger transport, guided tours including underwater, boat rentals, small-scale fishing, recreational fishing, fishing tourism and individual or group diving , specific authorizations will be required, with priority for resident operators .
For motor navigation and anchoring, it will be necessary to follow rules, which will gradually become more severe until a rectangle of sea with total protection is reached. Mayor Maria Concetta Spada, who has fought for years and will be the president of the new body, is satisfied. Great expectations and optimism on the part of local fishermen and tourism operators : with a sea healed from the damage caused by fishing boats, the fish will return and with them, hopefully, a tourism compatible with environmental protection.
