To birdwatching enthusiasts, Grado dedicates one part of its laggoon (the eastern part) to the Natural Reserve of the outlet of Isonzo, the “Caneo” natural area and the Natural Reserve of Val Cavanata.
The realization of these areas was notably enhanced by the already high levels of biological diversity present in this area of the lagoon, with the presence of numerous botanical and animal species, among which the birds particularly stand out, since nearly 300 various species have been observed. Among the numerous species, one thinks of for example the Spatola, the Gru Cenerina, the red heron, the Mignattaio, the Cavaliere d’Italia, the Tarabuso and the wetlands hawk… all of which are rather rare.
