Doņana National Park Information
The Beach
Doñana's fine sandy beaches provide a home for large
groups of birds which live along the coast. Herring gulls
and turns and turn are joined every winter by seafowl such
as scoters. Still standing on these unspoilt beaches are watchtowers,
vestiges of the past, which provide shelter to peregrine falcons
and barn owls.
The Dunes
Coastal winds have created a landscape of rare beauty with
sandy dunes populated by junipers and stone pine forests which
have been used as the setting for some of the scenes of Lawrence
of Arabia. One of its most impressive parts. El Cerro de los
Ánsares, is the tallest dune in Doñana. It attracts
numerous sea birds which swallow its sand to ease their digestion.
The Vera
A boundary limiting the cotos with the marshland and the marshland
with the dunes, in this green pastureland visitors can find
cork trees of great beauty which have significant ecological
importance because they are used by colonies of storks, herons
and spoonbills for nesting.
