“The World's Most Robust Marine Reserve”
The Cabo Pulmo National Marine Park (CPNP), near the southern end of Baja California in the Sea of Cortez, is a shining example of how marine ecosystems can have a surprising and astonishing ability to bounce back – when given the chance.
This marine park was established in 1995 by local citizens to restore depleted coral reef fishes and other marine life that had been depleted due to fishing. The successful recovery of marine life seen here today can largely be attributed to the persistent support and efforts of its citizens whom have enforced the “no-take” restrictions.
