Birds watching

Lesser Frigatebirds over the Sea

Many people already mentioned in their reviews that they like to see Egrets walking in the resort, Eagles and Frigatebirds gliding in the sky, wake up in the morning with amazing birds singing. Recently we had guests from Denmark who are enthusiasts of birds watching. They spotted and identified 25 species of birds in our place, made a list and kindly shared it with us. Thank you!
