Full description
If birds had a paradise, it would probably be the Ebro Delta.
Enjoy a 4-hour private experience with an expert guide, navigating between lagoons, meanders and open sea while watching flamingos, kingfishers, herons and dozens of species in one of the best birdwatching sanctuaries in the Mediterranean.
What we will do
You will meet 10 minutes before the agreed time at the meeting point at the Club Náutico Riumar, in Deltebre, where you will be met by your professional skipper and expert guide in the fauna of the Delta. You will get on board Skipper Black, a 9-metre boat with side seats, prepared to sail comfortably at low speed through the richest areas of the Ebro Delta in terms of biodiversity.
You will start the trip along the Ebro River, where the landscape of reed beds and meanders hides birds such as the kingfisher, the red-crested pochard and the osprey. You will then sail towards the Garxal lagoon, one of the enclaves with the highest density of fauna, where you will be able to see flamingos, grey, purple and white herons, eaglets, ibis and many other species that change depending on the time of year.
You will continue along the Migjorn river and stop at different observation towers, privileged places to identify species with the help of binoculars, and later you will go beyond the mouth of the Ebro, entering gently into the Mediterranean Sea, where many seabirds also come to use the Delta as a refuge, breeding area or migratory resting point.
The whole route will be customisable, adapting to your preferences (photography, identification of species, calm navigation, etc. ). Throughout the experience, the guide will explain the behaviour of the birds, the dynamics of the ecosystem and curiosities of this unique spot, with more than 300 recorded species.
After about 4 hours of sailing, you will return to the port of Riumar with the sensation of having experienced a real day of birdwatching in one of the most important places in Europe for birdlife.
