Save

Uvala Palud, smještena je 8 kilometara jugozapadno od grada Rovinja, a danas predstavlja jedini ornitološki park u Istri. Voda iz susjednih brda i dolina, kao i sjevernih bočnih izvora isprepliće se pa je tako pretvorila ovu prirodnu depresiju u blizini mora u jedinstvenu močvaru. Tijekom postojanja austrougarske vojne baze u Barbarigi, 200 m dug kanal prokopan je sve do mora kako bi se spriječio razvoj ličinki komaraca, odnosno prijenosnika malarije. Povezujući more i močvaru, Palud je privukao nove stanovnike poput sivog cipla i jegulja, vrsta koje vole slankastu vodu.. Raznolikost vrsta ptica selica najvažnije su obilježje ove močvare. Ornitolozi su primijetili boravak preko 200 vrsta ptica na Paludu. Brojne proljetne i jesenske migracije izvrsna su prilika za njihovo promatranje. Kako je park zabranjen lovcima, bogato je stanište fazana, sivih jarebica i prepelica. Sjeverni dio Paluda krije pravu prašumu, a na njegovim malenim otočićima se gnijezde galebovi. Uz uređenu stazu nalazi se promatračko mjesto koje olakšava nesmetano promatranje ptica u njihovom prirodnom okruženju i njihovo ponašanje tijekom hranjenja, gniježđenja ili odmora.

it was so exciting to spot the speckled flamingo , other than that there are so many bird species that i felt overwhelmed and excited. Great place to pass your day if you love birds. Will recommend the palud ornithological reserve to bird watchers

The view of this beach was breathtaking. It is a great spot to watch birds. There were different species of migratory birds which are as a result of the swamp. I really enjoyed just sitting on the rocky beach and enjoying the scenery seeing the beach.

We visited the bay with my fiancee that had a variety of bird species. We enjoyed bird watching as they flew in and out of the water body. There were many species ranging from flamingoes to other major birds. We had the opportunity to go for boat ride and the experience was unique. The tour guide wa joyful and fun to cruise with. He was informative and slipped in some jokes that kept us entertained through the cruise not forgetting the amazing views that the landscape has to offer and the turquoise waters at the bay. Going to the beach i wouldn't miss to swim and the experience at the sandy beaches of Palud bay is therapeutic and would recommend a visit to the place for anyone.

The colourful marine and sea creatures are an eye catcher. My kids loved taking photos of the different species of the marine fish. The most fascinating item was the spectacular view of the sunset. I was awed by the different species of birds especially the specked flamingo. We enjoyed relaxing at the sandy beaches as we tasted the delicious cuisines of the Croatian dishes served by polite, friendly staffs.

We visited the Bay and had the opportunity to visit the observation trail and enjoyed the diverse range of fauna that inhabit the place. We also enjoyed a tour on the trail with the help of the guide and learned as well as saw different species of birds. The Palud Bay has an attractive look and the view of the landscape is completely superb.
