The area also has an interpretation center, birdwatching points, trails, and rest areas.

This mill, built in the 18th century, was restored to its original state in 1996. It is made of stone and clay and stands approximately seven and a half meters tall. Its structure comprises two floors: the lower floor served as the miller's dwelling, while the upper floor housed the grain-grinding machinery.

It was designed by the American sculptor Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney and donated to Spain by the United States in 1929. The sculpture, in Cubist style and inspired by Egypt, is 37 metres high and represents a Franciscan friar from the Monastery of La Rábida. This friar welcomed Christopher Columbus while he was planning his first voyage and awaiting confirmation of funding from the Spanish monarchs. The pedestal of the monument includes reliefs depicting Mayan, Aztec, Inca and Christian elements.
