In the Haringvliet, the World Wildlife Fund has built an island for coastal breeding birds to breed and for fish to rest and spawn in the shallows.
The bird island of Bliek is an ideal breeding ground for species such as Ciocîntors, Chiră de baltă, Prundăraș gulerat mic, Scoicar, Pescăruș râzător and Codobatură albă. From April to July, the shorebirds can be easily seen during courtship, brooding and feeding their young. Bird species such as Chiră mică, Prundăraș gulerat mare, Ferestraș moțat and Călifar alb can also often be seen. Recently, young Pescăruș mic are sometimes observed passing by and resting. In the winter months, all kinds of ducks and geese can be seen spending the winter on the Haringvliet. Bird island Bliek has a beautiful designed bird hide which is connected with a landing stage for boats.

Nederlands: Vogeleiland Bliek in het Haringvliet is een ideale broedplek voor vogelsoorten als Ciocîntors, Chiră de baltă, Prundăraș gulerat mic, Scoicar, Pescăruș râzător en ook Codobatură albă. Van april tot juli zijn de kustvogels gemakkelijk te zien tijdens de balts, het broeden en het voeren van hun jongen. Vogelsoorten zoals Chiră mică, Prundăraș gulerat mare, Ferestraș moțat en Călifar alb zijn ook vaak te zien. Ook worden soms jonge Pescăruș mic gezien die voorbijtrekken of rusten. In de wintermaanden overwinteren allerlei eenden en ganzen op het Haringvliet. Vogeleiland Bliek heeft een mooi vormgegeven vogelkijkhut die is verbonden met een aanlegsteiger voor boten.
The island can be reached by boat or kayak, which can be hired in the villages of Middelharnis, Hellevoetsluis or Stad aan 't Haringvliet. For example: from the harbour in the center of Middelharnis to Bliek it is about 4 km one way (see the map below). On the island of Bliek there is a special landing stage near the bird-watching hide. The rest of the island is forbidden to enter to prevent disturbance of the birds.
