Chiclana Nature
Chiclana has an extension of 203 km2 a third of it is occupied
by the Natural Park Bahía de Cádiz. This Park is composed
of marsh, rivers, dunes, islands,…that makes the perfect union between
Sea and Land.
Walking across the town center, we may see proof for the reason Chiclana
obtained the prize of the Green Flag “ Ciudad Sostenible”
in 2002 because there are numerous birds that live here the whole year.
Near to the town centre we have the possibility to enjoy differents exosystems
(marsh, countryside, pinewoods, beaches, etc…)
Lagoons
In the river Iro there are several temporary lagoons and pools. The most
important are Jeli and Montellano, both are natural reserves and protected
areas for the birds.
Pinewoods
They are numerous pinewoods in the town. Specially beautiful are Pinar
de la Espartosa, Pinar del Hierro and Pinar de la Barrosa, this one is
provided with leisure installations for the use and enjoyment of the visitors.
