Description

Lake Patria or Lago Patria is the largest coastal lake in Campania, with an area of 2 km². It has a characteristic heart shape. The lake is fed by modest freshwater streams and some springs, but also by a canal which connects it to the sea and allows the entry of salt water. Lake Patria hosts a rich fauna of marsh birds. The lagoon is a fundamental stop for birds during their migrations, so you can see many ducks, waders, herons and passerines here.
