Foz do Cávado is a pool complex situated in the estuary of the river Cávado. Despite the small dimensions and its location in a densely urbanized environment this is a good place for birdwatching.

Among the birds you can see are kazarka hrdzavá, kanárik poľný, lastovička červenochrbtá, kalužiak sivý, rybárik riečny, cistovník ryšavý, kulík piesočný and kršiak rybár.
