In this article released by La Verdad, it highlighted the Seco de Palos and the strip between San Pedro del Pinatar and Calblanque passing a demanding scientific review and are now recognized as Important Shark and Ray Areas (ISRA).
From | La Verdad

«La Unión Internacional para la Conservación de la Naturaleza (IUCN) ha reconocido el valor de dos áreas costeras de la Región de Murcia para la conservación de tiburones y rayas: este martes declaró como zonas ISRA —Important Shark and Ray Areas, por sus siglas en inglés– el Seco de Palos (Cartagena) y el tramo entre San Pedro del Pinatar y Calblanque. Como adelantó LA VERDAD, un comité compuesto por 180 científicos llevaba meses evaluando más de cien propuestas planteadas por diferentes países bañados por el Mediterráneo, de las que finalmente han sido admitidas la mitad (65). De las 23 que se formularon desde España solo han sido aceptadas catorce, entre ellas las dos ubicadas en el litoral de la Comunidad Autónoma.
​
Las especies de interés que justifican la declaración de parte de la costa regional como zonas ISRA son el pez guitarra, la mantelina, el águila marina, la pastinaca, la raya estrellada y el tiburón linterna; estos son los elasmobranquios de los que se cuenta con información científica suficiente, pero en aguas de la Región crían, se alimentan, se reúnen o tienen presencia esporádica hasta 31 variedades de estos peces cartilaginosos, como tintoreras, marrajos, musolas, tiburón peregrino, tiburón cerdo, negras, pintarrojas, tembladeras e incluso las enormes mantarrayas. Aunque no sea fácil ver ni a rayas ni a tiburones porque suelen vivir en mar abierto.»
