The Natural Park of the La Mata and Torrevieja lagoons is between the municipalities of Torrevieja, Guardamar and Los Montesinos. It is considered one of the most important European wetlands, which is why they are part of Lista Mar, a list of natural areas created in 1960 in France. Qualified "of international importance", they have the status of SPA and since 1994 it is a Natural Park. Located in a depressed area closed to the sea, the lagoons communicate with the Mediterranean through channels such as the Acequión; the water enters by gravity and floods the La Mata lagoon that acts as a preheater. In turn, the two lagoons are linked through another channel, so that the water previously heated in La Mata passes to the Torrevieja lagoon where the salt is extracted once it has crystallized. The Visitor Center is located in the old Forest House of the hamlet of La Mata (Torrevieja), located about 400 m from the N-332 Alicante - Cartagena, at km 64.5 point. Access to the Visitor Center is made from the national road by a paved road. Staff: 2 environmental educators. 1 Technical Service of Management of Protected Natural Areas CITMA.

The Acequión is an artificially open channel to allow the entry of sea water that constitutes a small representation of the marine habitat. There are species of marine fauna and flora such as crabs, algae, actinias, posidonia, worms, polychaetes, fish, etc. Water enters La Mata by gravity, because the lagoon is lower than sea level. From here you can observe the salt marsh vegetation, located on the banks of the lagoon. These plants have internal juices with high salt concentrations in order to withstand the high saline concentration of the soil and the high temperatures without dehydration. Some of them eliminate the excess of salt by the leaves, which gives them a whitish color. From the Observatory you can see the different waterfowl of the lagoon. According to the time in which the traveler makes the visit, you can see different types of birds, since some of them stop at this place to rest and feed on their long trip to Africa, while others spend the winter because where they live , the Arctic tundra, normally has uninhabitable conditions in this epoch.
