Navionics vs Naval Operational Training Area

[Wave34]

I'm plotting a route with Navionics from Naples FL to the Keys.
The route crosses a delimited area that is defined as Naval Operational Training Area.

So, that means pleasure boats cannot enter that area?
Navionics doesn't take that into account?
In this case, I would have to follow the coast?

You can operate in an OTA unless restrictions are in place. Check daily LMN for current restrictions

FWIW:
Your track is outside the OTA according to your map

I thought that all the squares were the OTA??

Do you know what are the numbers in parenthesis?
Those numbers are there only in the squares.
