The Natural Park of the Lagunas de La Mata and Torrevieja is located in the Vega Baja del Segura region, between the municipalities of Guardamar del Segura, Torrevieja, Los Montesinos and Rojales. It is a valuable wetland close to the Natural Parks of El Hondo and the Salinas de Santa Pola. This set of wetlands form a natural environment of special importance for the biological cycle of many species of birds, both resident and migratory.

Like other places with the same type of habitat, this environment is sustained thanks to the economic activity of a saline exploitation. In this case located in the Torrevieja lagoon, which has given rise to this wonderful landscape. In it you can see a forest vegetation characteristic of the Mediterranean forest, formed by kermes oak, mastic and Aleppo pine that undergoes changes as it approaches the lagoon. Finally it is replaced by halophyte species, vegetation that arises naturally due to the salinity of the environment, such as barrella or Limonium cesium.

The large number of aquatic birds and marsh passerines stand out, giving rise to an environment full of soft sound and beauty. In addition, for those interested in birding, the park has a network of viewpoints and observatories available for use.
