Saint-Barthélemy Marine Park Jet ski and water ski forbidden Beautiful snorkeling If you observe anything out of the ordinary, please call the emergency number: 06 90 31 70 73 Marine Park Founded in 1996, the Réserve Naturelle de Saint-Barthélemy is divided into five zones around the island. These protected areas have led to an increased population of green sea turtles in the waters around Saint Barthélemy, and ensure the survival of other species, such as sharks and leopard rays, that are threatened on other islands. Moorings are available for visiting boats. These moorings protect the coral reefs and underwater plant beds at diving sites, as well as in the bays of Colombier and Fourchue. In fact, these are the only two bays within the Réserve that allow any anchoring; elsewhere in the protected waters, this practice is prohibited. The agents will be happy to answer your questions at the information booth located in the Port of Gustavia. For all additional information: contact@agence-environnement. 115
