About
Fatti rapidi: Intertidal mudflats and reedbeds along the coast form wide wetlands, and winding channels often host nearly a hundred species of waterbirds. On the wooden boardwalk you can smell the damp sea breeze and a hint of salt, and occasionally crabs burrow from the mud like agile performers in a miniature theater.
Punti salienti: At the end of the boardwalk stands a birdwatching tower; on clear mornings the two-kilometer route can see thousands upon thousands of migratory birds skimming the sea, sunlight turning their feathers into glittering gold. Over thirty low-angle observation windows are installed beneath the boardwalk for close views of shoreline life; the feel of sandworm tentacles and the sound of small shrimps flipping on the mud make it feel like listening to the heartbeat of the shore.
Insider tips
- Wear waterproof shoes and sun protection, mud and long grasses are common along boardwalk edges.
- Bring binoculars and a telephoto lens for birding, the main viewing towers give the best distant shots.
- Visit on weekday mornings to avoid tour groups and catch peak bird activity, late afternoon is quieter for photos.
- Skip guided boat tours unless you want close-up wetland views, the boardwalks and towers cover most highlights efficiently.
