Marine Park zoning at Burnett Heads
Most of this coast sits inside the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, and the zone you are in decides whether you can fish, and how. Green (Marine National Park) zones are no‑take. Yellow (Conservation Park) zones allow limited line fishing. Dark blue (Habitat Protection) zones allow fishing but no trawling or netting. Light blue is General Use.
ReefNav draws all of it on a nautical chart we built ourselves from open GBRMPA and Maritime Safety Queensland data — zoning, depth contours, spot soundings, navigation marks and boat ramps on one chart, rather than cross‑referencing a zoning PDF against a paper chart.
