Description

Pozo Tremeo is one of those visits that is worth doing if you are a nature lover. Being the only natural lagoon on the Cantabrian coast, it has a special charm. It is a circular well, surrounded by reeds and sheltered by a small wood. The lagoon is visited by birds such as konopnica or siva čaplja and others such as liska, srpična trstnica or zelenonoga tukalica inhabit its reeds. If you enter the forest path, you may find birds such as stržek, veliki detel or dolgoprsti plezalček. The whole area is surrounded by meadows that are inhabited by birds like velika sinica or repnik and watched by birds of prey like črni škarnik or navadna postovka.

Access

It is possible to get to the lagoon by road and there is a space where you can park, although, if there are many people, it might be better to leave the car in the village of Polanco. The lagoon has a platform that can be accessed on foot by everyone. However, the route through the forest can be difficult for people with reduced mobility. The circular route indicated on the map is about 2 km.
