The tour´s first stretch we´ll do it in the Ses Salines cape area, which we arrive through a small and narrow road.

We park near by the Ses Salines cape´s lighthouse, and start the ornithologist circuit, through a small way which goes parallel to the sea-
In this area we can watch easily sea birds like The Shag and Audouin´s Gull, and woods and steppes birds too like The Tawny Pipit, Sardinian Warbler, Marmora´s Warbler, Stone Curlew, Hoopoe, Stonechat, Crested Lark, Spotted Flycatcher, Linnet, etc. etc.
After we take the lunch, we´ll go back to take the car and drive to Salobrar de Campos, a wet area which were used a long time ago like salt pans.Actually some of them are still profitable, and in fact there are a Company established there.
