It is possible to birdwatch with binoculars and spotting scopes made available, and also to make excellent photos at a short distance from species such as Flamingos, Herons, Oystercatchers, Terns, Cormorants, Waders, etc. It will be possible to learn about the historical and geomorphological events typical of this unique environment in Italy and some interesting local Storytelling, with culinary uses of the herbs and fish / molluscs caught in the lagoon.

Our birdwatching excursions are designed with an emphasis on ecology and a ‘leisurely’ approach, allowing for small group participation. The journey includes several pauses for wildlife observation. The optical gear provided to attendees enables them to experience nature’s moments from a substantial distance and capture captivating photographs. During the summertime, we often encounter large flocks of flamingos (sometimes in thousands), along with other stunning and intriguing species like shelducks, avocets, black-winged stilts, oystercatchers, and terns. This experience provides an opportunity to uncover the magnificent natural and landscape assets of Pialassa Baiona and to trace the region’s evolution from Roman times to the present. You get to experience first-hand, the interplay of nature, history (including the Garibaldi tradition and the Resistance), and the lives of the valley residents.
