There is a bird observatory. It is recommended not to make excessive noise and not access the interior areas of the River to avoid disturbing the birds that are nesting during the laying season.

The mouth of the Río Vélez is an excellent birdwatching area, especially during migration. The river's low water level encourages the formation of an estuary that provides a habitat for numerous bird species. In addition, its strategic location on the southern edge of Europe makes this area an important resting place for migratory birds. Species such as the Little Bittern, Moorhen and Reed Warbler live here. The vegetation, made up of reeds and white poplars, provides ideal conditions for birds.
