DESCRIPTION

This tidal marsh, south of Cadiz Bay, is an area of high landscape value, since it is one of the few areas that has not been altered by its use as a salt mine. In addition, the condition of the island and the existence of an important forest area (Pinar del Coto de la Isleta) higher up clearly demonstrate how the natural landscape of the bay must have looked further back in time.

Due to its location halfway between the Strait of Gibraltar and the Doñana National Park, it is an important stop off for a great number of birds on their migratory journeys. There are a number of plants adapted to the varying conditions of the area, caused by the changing in the tide- Particularly resistant to the high salinity are Arthrocnemum macrostachyum and duckweed.

This area is also one of the most characteristic and dynamic in terms of the interaction between sea and land ecosystems, making it very important for its abundance of species of fish, birds and invertebrates.
