Description
When the tide is high this is a less attractive site so try to time your visit to coincide with a rising or falling tide particularly during migration. However, even at high tide you can still see a variety of terns - particularly Sterne caugek, Sterne naine and Sterne pierregarin, less often Sterne caspienne and Guifette noire plus, rarely, Sterne voyageuse - and various gulls including Goéland railleur. Further out in the bay check for Grand Labbe and Fou de Bassan. Waders include Gravelot à collier interrompu, Grand Gravelot, Bécasseau sanderling, Bécasseau variable, Tournepierre à collier, Huîtrier pie, Chevalier gambette, Barge à queue noire, Courlis corlieu, etc. At all times take great care not to disturb roosting & feeding birds. Note that the beaches can be busy at weekends and peak holiday times.
The beach at the end of Camino de la Reyerta is overlooked by an excellent chiringuito (bar/restaurant), Casa Gaspar, making this a great place to stop for refreshment as you can still watch the birds (often at close quarters on a high tide). From the bar head west towards Punta de Montijo (c1 km) to check for waders, gulls & terns (heading east towards Sanlucar risks getting cut off when the tide rises which makes for a long detour inland to return the chiringito). The walls of the corrales de pesca (ancient enclosed fish traps) are often used by birds feeding for resting. From the point you have a good view across the bay towards Chipiona.
