Description
Port de Silla is located in Parc Natural de l'Albufera. Vast rice fields surround the Albufera and attract many birds. This place is special in this because of this very picturesque harbour with historic sailing boats and the possibility in the summer to explore the Albufera by canoe. Birds you can observe include Blistavi Ibis, Čaplja Govedarica, Veliki Vranac, Siva Čaplja, Mala Bijela Čaplja, Vjetruša, Žličarka and Velika Bijela Čaplja.
Also take the dirt road from the harbour south for views over the Albufera. The entire area of the Albufera is crisscrossed by narrow agricultural roads, paths along narrow canals and over dikes along the rice fields. These can be closed due to high water.
