Reserva natural Integral de Los Islotes

The Reserva Natural Integral de Los Islotes encompasses Montaña Clara islet and the Eastern and Western rocks, covering 165.2 hectares of protected marine territory.

The Spanish government established this nature reserve in 1986 as part of the Northern Lanzarote Islets Park before its reclassification in 1994 under the Canary Islands Natural Spaces Law.

The reserve maintains strict regulations prohibiting human presence to protect the nesting grounds of numerous bird species, including the entire white-breasted storm petrel population.

Access to the reserve and underwater activities in its waters require special permits due to its status as a fully protected natural environment.

The reserve contains over 100 terrestrial invertebrate species, including Campyloneuropsis fulva, an endemic bug found exclusively on the Eastern Rock.
