It is the ideal place to relax and enjoy the Sicilian sun in an uncrowded place, where you can take long walks in a wild place with few bathing establishments. The quality of the beach and sea is evidenced by the awarding of the blue flag.

This coastal wetland is a critical stopover point for many migratory bird species, making it a favorite destination for birdwatchers.<\/p>\n\n<p>Throughout the course of the year, it provides ideal conditions for resting, feeding and breeding for an incredible number of animal species: more than 250 species of birds, at least 21 species of Dragonfliesand hundreds of species of insects.<\/p>\n\n<p>To enter the reserve you need to book a guided tour at: +39 331 229 8636. The cost of the ticket is about 10 euros per person. Otherwise, you can take the<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/wGW3gaR9rQSrVoDM6\"> free pedestrian route<\/a> without a guide although a little less fascinating.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Examples_of_bird_species_to_watch\"><\/span>Examples of bird species to watch<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Herons and Eg<\/strong>rets: This area is also an ideal habitat for herons, egrets and other waterfowl species.
