This protected zone is formed by the contribution of sediments from the Piedras River together with the depositing effect of the tides. Composed of flora and fauna species of great environmental and ecological value, this site has become a tourist destination of great interest in the Huelva area.

Today, other activities take place in this natural space, such as hiking, environmental education or bird watching.
Of this site, the Flecha de Nueva Umbría stands out for its uniqueness, an offshore sandbar that began to form more than 200 years ago. It runs parallel to the coast and now reaches a length of almost 15 km and grows by about 40 m each year, with a width between 300 and 700 m. Located at the mouth of the river Piedras, it was born due to the strong coastal dynamics in this area, d. H. by river materials, tidal range, beach drift and prevailing southwest winds. This formation, unique in the country, is considered a geomorphological jewel.
