Highlights

Description

Just a few kilometres from Valencia is the Albufera Nature Park, a magical place where nature, history and Valencian traditions come together.

Its calm waters, rice fields and the flight of migratory birds create a unique landscape, perfect for disconnecting and discovering an authentic corner of the Valencian Community.

Explore this natural environment aboard our eco-friendly electric boats, silent and emission-free, designed to protect the lagoon's ecosystem.

We will begin:

The excursion begins in the pristine dunes of El Saler, where you will be welcomed by the sea breeze and the local flora. From there we will enter the Albufera lake, the largest in Spain, to learn from our guide about its history, its ecological value and its importance for the city of Valencia.

We will continue:

We will continue to El Palmar, an island where the fishing tradition is still alive. We will walk among typical 18th century huts, learn how life has evolved in this small village and enter one of these traditional buildings.

Highlight:

The highlight of the experience is a boat ride on the lagoon: a perfect moment to relax and watch one of the most spectacular sunsets in the region. .
