Ornitokayak on the Aiguamolls

Birdwatching by kayak

Kayak route for bird watching in the Aiguamolls de l'Empordà

Ornitokayak als Aiguamolls is a unique ornithological proposal on the Costa Brava that combines bird watching and kayaking. We will paddle around watching the birds of the Aiguamolls Natural Park with our guides trained with the SEO Birdslife-Iberaves programme and we will arrive at the bay of Roses, the longest bay of the Costa Brava to disembark and look for seabirds in a spectacular place! The Bay of Roses is in the Club of the most beautiful bays in the world! This is an ecotourism experience on the Costa Brava that is part of SEO Birdlife’s Iberaves project to guarantee good practices.

We will leave the Sant Pere Pescador Yacht Club and sail along the final stretch of the Fluvià river, passing by the edge of the Aiguamolls de l’Empordà Integral Reserve, the Illa de Caramany until we reach the mouth of the river. We will observe and identify the most characteristic bird species of the riverside forest, dune areas and coastline with the help of a series of worksheets.

We will register the bird observations we make on the ornitho.cat portal to collaborate in citizen science. Ideal for groups of friends, couples and families.

Practice ecotourism on the Costa Brava

Sustainability

We understand kayaking as a means of discovering our own region and that it helps us to get to know the fauna and flora, and we do this by seeking a return to the local population, generating the minimum possible impact and making our ecotourism experiences have a regenerative character with the environment.

Commitment

At Sk Kayak we promote ecotourism activities in which all the services we offer our users are of quality, responsible and committed to the environment, the environment and the territory that surrounds us.

Accessible

Let us make our activities Universal. When designing them we take into account that they are suitable for people with different functional capacities through the identification of Sensory Interest Points (SIP) where we work on sensory experiences with a minimum of 3 senses.

We tailor the activity to your needs

If it is a closed group we can create any of our tailor-made activities. We personalise the route, the day and the time so that you can come and enjoy it at the most convenient time.
