32 letters, you’ll need to dig a bit to get the right range.
[hint]It’s in the key of A !![/hint]
First started with letters to numbers to see if it would give a good Ascii range but nothing good. Then tried Atbash, Rot and a few others and nothing came out. When all else fails, try Vigenere Autokey with “A” as the passphrase

Now the letters are all in the A to J range or 0 to 9. Convert letters to numbers

Observations
You can clearly see words in there but dots and commas are mixing them up. Your first step will be to find the good split for these words.
[hint]Once you split them up the one that contains only a comma, replace it with semicolon[/hint]
These words are all names of islands in the Great Barrier Reef
You’ll need to count the letters before each commas and dots to make up a decimal number. Commas indicate the tens, dots the ones. Note the in “cholmon,deley” that comma should be a semicolon because the value is 77.

16 symbols
Let’s start by converting the symbols to their respective numbers on the keyboard
0212037624781616
Making pairs doesn’t give a good range for either numbers to letters or ascii. Let’s see how we can split things up to get a passcode format
02 12 03 76 2 478 16 16
In this way we have 3 pairs for letters, then 2 numbers, a 2 for the keyword, 4 numbers and 2 pairs for letters
Convert numbers to letters where needed
cmd76 2 478qq
Now we need a keyword substitution for 2 or @. Few theories:
@ for 2, convert to letters is C then substitue as see, probable Niantic error for seek that can be substituted for search
