Italiano: Uno dei pochi stagni con cabina di osservazione e numerosi parcheggi nelle immediate vicinanze. Gli stagni d'estate sono vuoti e presentano un'abbondante vegetazione adatta alla nidificazione.

Access

At the crossroads of the SS125 in Budoni, turn off in via Olbia following the indication of a restaurant on the beach and, near the car parks of the beach, you pass between the two ponds. The most interesting and accessible is at the right as well as the spaciousbird hide overlooking the pond. The presence of reeds makes it difficult to observe from the trails, except from the bird hide. This does not disturb the nesting birds.

_________________________

Italiano: Al bivio della SS125 a Budoni si svolta in via Olbia seguendo l'indicazione di un ristorante sulla spiaggia e, in prossimità dei parcheggi della spiaggia, si passa tra i due laghetti - anche il più interessante e accessibile è a destra come lo spazioso osservatorio ornitologico con vista sullo stagno. Luogo ideale per la nidificazione. La presenza dei canneti rende difficile l'osservazione dai sentieri, se non dall'osservatorio ornitologico, ma questo non disturba gli uccelli nidificanti.
