Pateira de Fermentelos is the largest natural lagoon in the Iberian Peninsula, a paradise of biodiversity, home to more than 150 species of birds.

This is one of the most important tributaries of the River Águeda, running 43km from its source in Casal de Camba and crossing four municipalities in the district of Aveiro: Mealhada, Anadia, Oliveira do Bairro and Águeda. Initially, the river is narrower, with marginal trees – Ash (Fraxinus angustifolia), Willow (Salix spp.), Poplar (Populus sp.), among others – frequently forming riparian galleries. Its final half, between Aguada de Baixo (Oliveira do Bairro) and its mouth, in Requeixo (Aveiro), takes place at lower elevations and flat terrain, forming long floodplains on its banks.
