MonNatura Delta de l'Ebre

Carretera del Poblenou del Delta a les Salines, Parcela 7, Amposta, Tarragona

At the MónNatura Delta de l’Ebre Nature Reserve—one of Western Europe’s largest wetlands—you can see the restored La Tancada salt works, try your hand at traditional fishing, and, with luck, spot flamingos and other wetland birds. Plus, the observatory offers 360-degree views of the salt pans.

The MónNatura Delta de l’Ebre focuses primarily on salt and traditional fishing, as well as bird watching. Given the scale of the reserve, it’s best explored during a guided tour that covers the highlights, which include the salt flats, viewpoint, and interpretation center. Families can take advantage of several children’s workshops and activities. Booking admission tickets in advance means you avoid waiting in line on the day, making it a must for time-pressed travelers.

MónNatura Delta de l’Ebre opens throughout the year, except between December 10 and February 15. Summer and winter hours do vary, so check in advance for exact opening times. Visit in late September for the Delta Birding Festival.
