Through the path of the wind and the sky we can observe the meeting point of the Atlantic coast and the Neiva riverplain,resulting on a river mouth of unusual reduced proportions. Throughout the coast line, the white pebble beaches overlap the slate outcrops that protect the old dunes.This dune system separates the sea from the agricultural plain,dotted by the Mediterranean and maritime pine woodland,and reed beds.
