Description
Cacelha Velha is a remarkably intact village with a 17th-century fortress. It is located in the Parque Natural da Ria Formosa, one of the most beautiful and important wetlands of Portugal. Featuring an extensive string of sandy barrier islands parallel to the coast protecting the interior of the ria from the sea and creating environmental conditions similar to an estuary. This system extends for almost 60 km between Ancão beach and Cacela Velha, with a high biodiversity in which birds are of particular importance.
The idyllic village of Cacelha Velha, which was a long peninsula until 2010, when the tides and a new inlet turned most of it into an island. You can walk along the edge of the lagoon where birds such as Huîtrier pie, Pluvier argenté, Gravelot à collier interrompu, Grand Gravelot, Courlis corlieu, Courlis cendré, Barge rousse, Tournepierre à collier, Bécasseau sanderling, Chevalier aboyeur, Spatule blanche, Goéland railleur, Goéland d'Audouin, Sterne naine and many more can be spotted.
