Punta Entinas-Sabinar, Coastal national park in Roquetas de Mar, Spain.

The protected area spans 1,960 hectares along the Mediterranean coast, featuring sand dunes, beaches, freshwater lakes, and saline wetlands near Roquetas de Mar.

The Torre de Cerrillos watchtower marks the boundary between Roquetas de Mar and El Ejido, constructed as part of the Mediterranean defense system against pirates.

The former salt production facilities, including crystallizers and water transport infrastructure, reflect the industrial heritage that shaped local economic development.

Two marked trails traverse the park: the Salinas de Cerrillos path extends 4.6 kilometers eastward, while the Marismas de Entinas trail stretches 6.5 kilometers westward.

The natural reserve hosts over 150 bird species, including flamingos and Audouin's gulls, making it a primary location for Mediterranean wildlife observation.
