11,589-acre Rincón De La Victoria - Límite Pn De Acantilados De Maro. East Spain coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 CDI-audited Spanish hydrographic and research-survey/composite DTM contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official Spanish WFD named coastal or transitional assessment water in Alboran Sea. This child is clipped to the exact source polygon and a trip-scale ownership window. Coverage classes and uncertainty limits are disclosed; this is a fishing-planning chart, not a navigation chart or catch forecast. The water tops out around 566 ft. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
The outline encloses 11,587 acres, worked by 22.5 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.5) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. About 7% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Figure 8.8 mi of water from one end to the other, 3.4 mi at the beam. Its nearest charted neighbour, Rincón De La Victoria - Límite Pn De Acantilados De Maro - Central, is 9 mi to the west.
Occurrence evidence does not promise a catch or establish that retention is legal. Current seasons, closures, protected species, gear rules and local restrictions always control. The roster may combine exact-water monitoring with habitat-filtered official regional evidence; it does not imply that every species is equally abundant throughout the mapped section.

When the water first warms, european seabass slide up into 3 to 25 ft. Summer is a 2 to 30 ft game here, winter a 10 to 55 ft one. Start at Shoreline point. It's a point holding about 29 ft of water and rates good come fall. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a surface lure or a paddle-tail soft plastic rigged through the warm months.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (9 ft) | Paddle-tail soft plastic, Shallow minnow plug |
| Summer | 2 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (29 ft) | Surface lure, Paddle-tail soft plastic |
| Fall | 4 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (29 ft) | Slim metal lure, Minnow plug |
| Winter | 10 to 55 ft | midday | open water | Slow soft-plastic shad, Suspending minnow |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: gilthead seabream in 3 to 35 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 2 to 45 ft before dropping to 20 to 100 ft for winter. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

Early season common dentex use the shallows, holding in 20 to 130 ft. Summer is a 30 to 180 ft game here, winter a 60 to 260 ft one. The chart's best answer is Sharp break — drop-off, 36 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: red mullet in 5 to 55 ft. As the season builds they drop to 4 to 70 ft, wintering in 30 to 140 ft. Top water on the chart: Sharp break, a drop-off in the 36 ft range, good in summer. Time it for early morning and the evening.

Spring atlantic bonito on Rincón De La Victoria - Límite Pn De Acantilados De Maro - East hold shallow, usually 15 to 100 ft. Depth-wise the year is flat: 5 to 90 ft in summer, 50 to 220 ft once it turns cold. Put Shoreline point first on the milk run — a point near 29 ft that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening.

Come spring, look for bluefish tight to the bank in 3 to 20 ft. They move out to 5 to 30 ft in summer and finish the year down in 15 to 40 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Shoreline point: a point around 9 ft that scores good in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A popper (early/late) or a metal jigs in the rips is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (9 ft) | Metal (Hopkins/Kastmaster), Pencil popper |
| Summer | 5 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Popper (early/late), Metal jigs in the rips |
| Fall | 3 to 25 ft | dawn & midday | Shoreline point (9 ft) | Pencil popper, Big metal |
| Winter | 15 to 40 ft | midday | open water | Metal jig worked slow (southern waters) |

MITECO 2025 national bathing-water census and coastal-domain review was reviewed, but no stable government record establishes a public fishing entrance, parking or launch for this exact mapped child. This is an access-evidence gap, not a claim that public access does not exist. Verify land ownership, port and harbour rules, protected areas, local signs, parking, safety, permits and fishing permission before entry.
Private land and private launches need the owner's permission — please ask first.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Spain waters are set by the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (marine recreational fishing) — and special regulations can apply to Rincón De La Victoria - Límite Pn De Acantilados De Maro - East specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Check Spain's live national, autonomous-community, EU and protected-area rules before every coastal trip. Licences for shore, boat and underwater fishing, PescaREC registration or reporting, protected-species authorizations, minimum sizes, quotas, closures, gear limits and marine-reserve permits can differ between exterior and interior waters and can change during the season. Recreational fishing is allowed only in specified zones of some reserves and is commonly subject to a special authorization. A WFD boundary, source-audited contour, fishing-spot marker or bathing-water record is planning context only and never grants fishing, retention, shore entry, parking, launching, port access or safe navigation permission.
