About
What AquaTactica is
AquaTactica is a reference for spearfishing (pesca submarina) in Spain and a companion site to the YouTube channel of the same name. It gathers what you need before entering the water: a map of protected zones, rules and licences by autonomous community, minimum catch sizes and a wiki of Mediterranean fish. The site is non-commercial and made by the channel’s author.
Important: this is not a legal document
This site is informational. It does not replace official regulations and is not a permit to hunt. Zone boundaries, sizes and rules are given for orientation.
Before every dive, check the primary source (BOE, your community’s website) and hold a valid licence. Compliance with the law is the diver’s responsibility. The author is not liable for possible errors or for data becoming outdated.
Data sources
- Reglamento (CE) 1967/2006 ↗Annex III — minimum conservation sizes
- Real Decreto 560/1995 ↗minimum sizes (BOE-A-1995-8639)
- Real Decreto 347/2011 · BOE-A-2011-6099 ↗recreational sea fishing
- mapa.gob.es ↗register of marine reserves + BOE coordinates
- OpenStreetMap ↗protected-area outlines, © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL
Boundary precision
Every zone on the map shows its boundary type: a solid line is built from official BOE coordinates; a plain line is an OpenStreetMap outline; a dashed line is an approximate, hand-drawn outline that only shows roughly where the zone is. Approximation is always stated in the zone card itself, never hidden.
Data currency
Data was collected and verified against official sources when the sections were published (July–August 2026). Laws and zoning change — always check the primary source before a dive.
