Known threats: In terms of exploitation of renewable resources, there is a threat from the indiscriminate use of resources, by poaching as well as the use of prohibited fishing methods. Site land use change is also a threat as the opening of fields for agriculture has altered the native ecosystems of the zone and aquaculture farms affect the natural ebb and flow of the tides. Lastly, the site is threatened by pollution in the form of sewage with agrochemicals.²
