Military and security zones

In Portugal UAS flights are prohibited or strictly restricted in:

  • Military training areas and bases
  • Border protection strips
  • Seaports and strategic facilities
  • Protected government sites

These zones are marked on the geo-zone map as prohibited (red) or restricted (amber).

Nature protection and reserve zones

Flights in nature areas may be restricted to protect wildlife:

  • National parks (Peneda-Gerês, Ria Formosa, Douro International) — permission may be required
  • Strict nature reserves — flights often prohibited
  • Ramsar wetlands and bird protection areas
  • Nesting and migration sites during sensitive seasons

Contact park administration or check official rules before flying over nature sites.
