Law No. 2/2013 - Law for the protection and sustainable use of the coast.
The present law of protection and sustainable use of the coast, specifies the concept of maritime-terrestrial public domain, both as regards the maritime-terrestrial zone and the beaches. The law establishes that the maritime-terrestrial zone will be fixed as far as the waves reach in the largest known storms, based on the technical criteria established, adding greater certainty, security and uniformity in the demarcations. It is specified that the artificially flooded lands will not become public domain, unless before the flood they were already public goods, with the precision that in any case they will be part of the public domain when they are navigable.
