Shallow bay which is part of the larger Sundsvall bay. Its large coastal meadows and bird cobs make it an excellent place for birding.
Bergafjärden consists of a large coastal meadow in the middle and higher hill/mountainous areas to the north and south. Most of the coastal meadow has been turned into a large beach for tourists but there are parts untouched in the northern part of the bay. Over the years 207 species have been recorded. During winter ice-free periods are often birdrich although the shallow waters often makes it frozen during winters. Cygne tuberculé, Cygne chanteur, Harle piette, Canard colvert, Harle bièvre, Garrot à oeil d'or, Goéland argenté, Goéland cendré and Fuligule morillon are the common seafowl during this period. Among other birds Oie cendrée, Héron cendré, Pie-grièche grise, and Pygargue à queue blanche are uncommon. Wintering woodpeckers like Pic cendré, Pic vert, and Pic tridactyle can be found most years. Some years Macreuse noire, Harle huppé, Harelde boréale, Macreuse brune, Fuligule milouin and Héron cendré also winter. In the forest most of common forest birds can be found. During invasions Durbec des sapins and Bec-croisé bifascié can be found.
During spring most of the previously mentioned waterfowl become more common and in March many geese arrive. Larger amounts of Oie cendrée (100 at most), and Bernache du Canada (100 at most) can be found. Often along it smaller amounts of Bernache nonnette and sometimes Oie des moissons, Oie rieuse, and even Oie naine (only very rarley). Among water fowl, Cygne chanteur (at most 300), Garrot à oeil d'or (at most 300), and Sarcelle d'hiver (at most 90) along with smaller amounts of Macreuse brune, Eider à duvet, Harle huppé, Harle bièvre, Harle piette, Canard colvert, Canard souchet and Canard siffleur. Uncommon ducks in the area are Canard chipeau, Canard pilet, and Sarcelle d'été.

Most common among these are Chevalier gambette, Chevalier sylvain, Chevalier aboyeur, Petit Gravelot, Bécasse des bois, Chevalier guignette, Huîtrier pie, Chevalier culblanc, Courlis cendré, Grand Gravelot and Combattant varié. More rarely Barge rousse, Courlis corlieu, Pluvier doré Chevalier arlequin, Bécasseau variable and Bécasseau de Temminck can be found. During perfect weather even Bécasseau maubèche, Bécasseau sanderling, Bécasseau maubèche, Bécasseau minute, Bécasseau falcinelle or Bécasseau cocorli can be found although these are more common during autumn (while still being very rare).
During this period common terns (Sterne arctique, Sterne pierregarin, Sterne caspienne), common gulls (Goéland argenté, Goéland marin, Goéland brun, Goéland cendré and Mouette rieuse) and sometimes the rare Mouette pygmée is found. At bergafjärden notable breeding birds are Grèbe huppé (some years, rare), Eider à duvet, Macreuse brune, Bernache nonnette, Faucon crécerelle, Grèbe esclavon, Sterne caspienne, Sterne arctique and Sterne pierregarin. During early autumn large amounts of waterfowl, geese and waders can be found although these are often more numerous than in spring and arctic waders like Bécasseau falcinelle are more common during autumn than spring. Most waders are found during august.
