Estero de San Antonio State Marine Recreational Management Area
Estero de San Antonio State Marine Recreational Management Area, Marine conservation area in Marin County, California, United States
The protected marine area stretches along 1.5 miles of coastline north of Dillon Beach, featuring mudflats, eelgrass beds, and saltgrass regions.
The California Department of Fish and Game established this marine protected area in August 2009 as part of the Marine Life Protection Act Initiative.
Local fishermen, divers, scientists, and conservationists collaborated to design this protected area to preserve marine life along California's coastline.
The area permits recreational activities like kayaking, diving, and swimming while prohibiting the collection of marine resources except for regulated waterfowl hunting.
A natural sandbar forms at the estuary mouth during summer months, creating temporary water barriers until winter rains restore the water flow.
