Why are there so many great birds in the Ebro delta?
The answer has a lot to do with the range of habitats available: ricefields, saltpans, muddy bays, sand dunes and spits, freshwater lagoons and reedbeds, riverside woodland and open sea. Mare nostrum, the Mediterranean sea. “A fascinating blend of land, sea and sky…and thousands of birds”.

Vital Info: It's easy to get disoriented while birding in the Ebro delta, so to avoid getting lost use the neighbouring sierras as a point of reference.

Mosquito alert! Don't forget to take some effective anti-mosquito lotion or spray, and remember that, despite widespread control, these annoying insects may be present from spring through to winter.
