Review:
The Area Natural Protegida Estero El Salado is an urban estuary that is home to a wide variety of fish, reptiles, and other animals. More than 100 different species of birds are known to reside here, making it an excellent destination for birdwatchers of all skill levels. The water is an important egg-laying site for many different kinds of fish, and other interesting inhabitants of the water include the river crocodile, the green iguana, and the garrabo. Opossums and raccoons are frequently spotted in the mangrove. Guided boat tours are available at specific times Tuesdays through Saturdays, and reservations must be made in advance.
