What You Will Do
An excellent ornithological tour, which will allow you to visit the richest bird spots on the Costa del Sol. Even better: we will be able to check most major Andalusian ecosystems, from the sea coast to the top of the mountain.

Itinerary
1
Punta de Calaburras
1 hour 30 minutes
Marine and coastal birds at Cabo Pino and Calaburras lighthouse (Calahonda marine protected area), especially abundant in winter and during the migration season.
2
Playa Guadalhorce
2 hours 30 minutes
Visiting the Guadalhorce Estuary is compulsory since this site is one of the most attractive wetlands in Andalusia and undoubtedly one of the best bird watching sites in Spain (!). As expected, many waterfowl and waders await us. On the best days, experienced birdwatchers spot up to a hundred species in this small reserve.
3
Malaga
1 hour
Our long circuit will take us to the Rio Grande, another interesting place with riparian forest.
4
Mirador de Juanar
1 hour 30 minutes
We will then visit El Juanar, a 'white' limestone mountain, with beautiful views over the Costa del Sol and Africa. The timing should be good for some birds of prey. On hot days, the pine forest will protect us a little from the heat.
5
Parque Nacional Sierra De Las Nieves
1 hour 30 minutes
Next, we move to a small Mediterranean reservoir and stream, which flows from the nearby Sierra de Las Nieves National Park, where a more impressive biodiversity awaits us.
