Las Piñas–Parañaque Critical Habitat and Ecotourism Area, Wetland conservation area in Metro Manila, Philippines.

The Las Piñas-Parañaque wetland spans 181 hectares near Manila Bay, consisting of two landmasses: Long Island and Freedom Island with extensive mudflats and mangrove forests.

The wetland emerged from the Manila-Cavite Coastal Road and Reclamation Project in 1973, leading to the formation of barrier islands across the expressway.

The area functions as an educational center through its Wetland Center Museum, which opened in February 2024 to promote environmental awareness and conservation.

Visitors must obtain permits five working days before their visit by submitting application forms through email to access the protected habitat area.

The wetland provides feeding grounds for 5,000 birds daily and contains 11 different mangrove species, making it a critical ecosystem in Metro Manila.
