Desembocadura del Guadalhorce, Nature reserve at Guadalhorce River mouth in Churriana district, Malaga, Spain.
The reserve contains five permanent lakes surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation, with Laguna Grande standing as the principal water body in the protected area.
In 1989, this 67-square-meter area received official protection status, transforming former agricultural land and gravel pits into a protected wetland ecosystem.
Environmental education programs operate throughout the year, teaching visitors about the ecological importance of wetlands and their role in biodiversity conservation.
The reserve maintains designated pathways and observation points where visitors can observe various bird species, including flamingos, spoonbills, and black storks.
This wetland functions as a critical stopover location along the Mediterranean coast for migratory birds, supporting populations of glossy ibises and Audouin's gulls.
