Riserva naturale orientata Oasi Faunistica di Vendicari

Amazing and quiet place, perfect not just for the birdwatching but also for an easy walk beach to beach. It's possible to reach every beach by walking, starting from one pf the five gates of the natural site

Surprisingly beautiful walk, spotted flamingos! Make sure to take sun protection as there are large portions with no shade.

Great place to observe flamingos and other birds and enjoy the nature. Pity it is so difficult to find info on opening hours Opening hours in February (not sure if these are anyhow different in other months) were 9.30 am till 4 pm. Entrance fee (3.5 EUR) to be paid by card only.

Beautiful place, clean and warm water (October). To get there you need to walk around 20 min from the nearby parking. E trance is 3.5 euro. You can go for hikes by the coast (2km, 7km)

It was a great decision to go there. We saw flamingos on the distance but also it was a nice walk around. We were at the beginning of December and it was nice weather so we could see the birds. Amazing experience.

Beautiful site with flamingos, egrets, lizards, butterflies, wildflowers, interesting rocks on the beach, and the industrial archaeology of an old tuna processing plant. Parking was very limited when we went (and the entrance was further inland than Google suggests) but staff were friendly (especially when we came back with armfuls of rubbish we'd found washed up on the beach).

Crystal clear sea water as soon as you pass the sea grass (natural and absolutely normal on site). Snorkeling is such a pleasure, especially close to the rocks of the Tonnara. Very well kept natural reserve with a long stretch of paths, the bird watchers will love this site as herons and flamingos (but not just) are easily spotted in the lagoons. Well worth the €3.50 ticket entrance, which, by the way, buys you access to other sites of the reserve during the day.

Private beach. The park and the entrance needs to be payed . To give us the preservation of this beautiful and stunning place. Perfect place to do trekking, along the sea. Take a perfect dive in to the different spots . Atmospheric place.

Love it here! Beautiful reserve. Miles of nature trails. Perfect for walking, hiking, biking. Go to the Long Beach, seim in the beautiful azure sea! Watch the flamingos. Visit the old tuna cannery. There is so much to see and do here. It truly is a very special place.
