DESCRIPTION

This endorheic complex is northeast of Chiclana, and is made up of the Jeli and Montellano lagoons and their surroundings. It is in an area of countryside with soft reliefs and gentle elevations. These wetlands of endorheic origin (they do not meet with the sea) are inhabited by plants closely linked to marine life, such as bulrush, giant reed, coco grass and tamarisk.

Similarly, birds and unique vertebrates, can be found amongst the species that nest here, in addition to the great crested grebe, the western swamphen and the red-knobbled coot. Other species simply use the area as a winter or rest stop on their way through to other places; This is true of the white-headed duck, marbled duck and flamingos.

The area has been designated a Special Protection Area for Birds (SPA).
