After the restoration process of this space where sand and gravel were extracted... this large hole remained where the water is now stored naturally and which has formed this magnificent place that provides shelter to a good number of birds and other species. Both migratory and native.

The small rocky island can be visited on foot from Blanes Bay. There are all sorts of shops and restaurants all around. And actually: This is roughly where the border between Costa Brava (towards the northeast) and Costa del Maresme (towards the southwest) runs.

Sa Palomera is the name of a rock surrounded by several small islets located at one end of the bay of Blanes. It is considered the starting point of the Costa Brava.

The restoration of an old sand and gravel extraction site allowed the creation of this wetland, where you can observe a large number of birds and other living species that find a perfect refuge here.... Because it is a wide and flat track, it is also perfect for walking 👣 or cycling 🚲 for all audiences.

Bird Observatory, nowadays, and especially at this time of the year, you can very likely and relatively easily see... Kingfisher (Ardea cinerea) White tern (Egretta garzetta) Egyptian goose (Alopochen aegyptiacus) Blauet (Alcedo atthis) Moorhen (Gallinula chloropus) Common kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) Sparrowhawk (Accipiter nisus) Common buzzard (Buteo buteo) Green woodpecker (Picus viridis) Upupa epops Cornelian crow (Corvus corone) Motacilla cinerea (Motacilla cinerea) Hedge Sparrow (Prunella modularis) Common chilli (Saxicola torquata) Smoked car (Phoenicurus ochruros) Common thrush (Turdus philomelos) Repicatalons (Emberiza schoeniclus) ...and a multitude of typical riverside species and agricultural areas. https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fsantceloni.cat%2F9203&psig=AOvVaw1m8-tBmRbvJQa1D6HQTWS7&ust=1679049247506000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CA8QjRxqFwoTCJCVmYGg4P0CFQAAAAAdAAAAABAE

Sa Palomera is a large rock that enters the sea and separates the bay of Blanes, in the north, and Sabanell beach, in the south, within the municipality of Blanes. It is considered to be the starting point of the Costa Brava. Sa Palomera and the adjacent islets can be visited, as a viewpoint has been set up from which you can see a wide perspective of the town and the delta of the Tordera river that flows out some 2 kilometers below, following Sabanell beach. This rock is part of the setting for the renowned Blanes Fireworks Festival, which is held every summer as part of the patron saint festivities in honor of saints Santa Ana and San Joaquín (July 26). In front of this mound there is a metallic arch in the shape of an inverted "V" that symbolizes the door and welcomes the Costa Brava.

It is a privately managed botanical garden... https://marimurtra.cat/es/
