Why go

The refuge changes with its wetland habitat, so the channels and birdlife give every visit a different emphasis. A boat route shows the relationship between lagoons and surrounding vegetation, while a viewing point offers another perspective. The attraction is the ecosystem, not a guaranteed species checklist.

What to look for

  • Wetland birdwatching around lagoons and channels.
  • The bird tower, water routes, and seasonal wetland habitat.
