Clot de Galvany – 11.1.2024

We would have preferred to spend more time in the hills, but it was noticeably cooler there. We decided to travel along the coast, even though it’s quite built up. We drove close to the Parc Natural El Fondo.

Again, lots of graffiti and rubbish, especially in barren land and at the roadside. We also saw big heaps of salt. We quite like holiday places with little towers, balconies and alcoves.

Clot de Galvany is a little nature reserve north of Santa Pola.

There are a few bird watching huts. We noticed that the information was in Spanish and in Valencian!

Unfortunately we didn’t see many birds… But we liked the mirroring on the lake 🙂

There was a signposted path that led through the park. Almost everywhere we saw houses in the background.

It felt good to be out in nature again.

Of course we climbed on every viewing platform 😉

The colours were somehow nice – it looked a bit like an arrangement of dried flowers 🙂

Down by the lakes again.

We interpreted the sign in the middle as „please don’t feed the birds“. -There were some interesting looking trees trunks 🙂

Later we even saw some more birds …

… and even two flamingos! They weren’t pink, because they obviously don’t eat the special algae or crab that contain the carotenoids. Or they were young birds…

We enjoyed that little walk 🙂

Right where our camper van was parked was an Irish Pub!

That night we parked below the „Far de Santa Pola“ (where we were 3 days ago).

Our journey that day.
