Lagoa de A Frouxeira

A protected natural lagoon in Valdoviño, visited each year by thousands of migratory birds. Part of the Costa Ártabra protected area. The lagoon sits behind a wild Atlantic beach, creating a unique ecosystem. A paradise for birdwatchers and nature lovers.

A protected wetland (Ramsar) behind A Frouxeira beach, refuge for thousands of water and migrating birds. The Kentish plover nests here, so keeping to the paths is asked.
