Description
The presence of a large navigable channel, the traffic of merchant ships and the alternation of deep seabeds and sand banks provides food resources for fish and seabirds as well.
One of the best spots in the Gulf of Trieste to watch wintering seabirds, sometimes at close range, but a spotting scope is recommended.

Italiano: La presenza di un grande canale navigabile, il traffico di navi mercantili e l'alternanza tra fondali profondi e banchi di sabbia emergenti fornisce abbondanti risorse alimentari sia per la fauna ittica che per gli uccelli marini.
Uno dei siti migliori nel Golfo di Trieste per osservare uccelli marini svernanti, talvolta a breve distanza.
