Punta de la Móra, Natural reserve on Costa Daurada, Spain.
Punta de la Móra is a natural reserve along the Costa Daurada featuring limestone cliffs that drop toward the sea, along with protected dunes and rocky shorelines. The site supports different habitats for Mediterranean plants and animals, including seabirds, dune vegetation, and tidal zone organisms.
The reserve received official protection in the 1990s as part of Europe's Natura 2000 network, established to preserve threatened coastal habitats. This designation reflected growing awareness about the need to safeguard Mediterranean shorelines across the continent.
Local environmental organizations conduct regular educational programs about marine life preservation and coastal ecosystem management for visiting school groups.
The area is reached by marked trails starting from the parking area, with designated viewing spots for bird watching and nature photography year-round. Wear sturdy footwear and stay on the paths to protect the fragile dunes and habitats throughout your visit.
The limestone cliffs offer climbing routes at different difficulty levels that rise up to 5 meters above sea level, creating moments of close contact with the Mediterranean. Climbers use these formations year-round while practicing restraint to preserve the cliff faces.
