LA ALBUFERA OF VALENCIA, NATURE PARK AND LAGOON
Sand dunes and plant life, canals, rice paddies, and the broad lagoon.. La Albufera is an attractive mosaic of landscapes south of the city of Valencia. Only 10 km. away from the City, by public transport, The Albufera Nature Park, dominated by the largest lake in Spain, is a natural paradise for migratory birds and a quiet parkland for the nearby city and surrounding towns.
The lagoon called “The Lluent”, meaning that which shines the most. Moorish poets coined the name of the Albufera, calling it the sun’s mirror.
We’ll discover the spectacular sight of the sun setting over the waters as seen from a typical fishing boat guided by old-time fishermen who know the area very well. We’ll stroll through the extensive pine forest and dune formations that separate the lake from the Mediterranean Sea.
A treat for your senses that you cannot miss.
