Answer

How could the Cabrera no-fishing zone benefit Mallorca in the long run?

In the long run, a healthier sea south of Mallorca could support richer marine life, more stable ecosystems and more attractive waters for diving and coastal visits. Better protection may also help reduce pressure on sensitive habitats and improve the overall quality of the seascape. The benefits are not immediate, but they can be meaningful for both nature and local coastal life.
