Islas Marías, Mexico
M2 Deployed Here!
This site is located within the Islas Marías Biosphere Reserve, an internationally recognized designation by UNESCO. The highly productive marine ecosystem supports coral reefs and species like the royal angelfish, sea turtles, and Pacific seahorses. Since the area is isolated from the mainland, the islands serve as a reservoir of native species. Commercial and sport-recreational fishing are restricted, but poachers often visit local waters. M2 helps defend the islands from this illegal fishing.
