Albufera
The Albufera (, from Arabic البحيرة ''al-buhayra'', "small sea") is a freshwater lagoon and estuary on the Gulf of Valencia coast of the Valencian Community in eastern Spain. It is the main portion of the ''Parc Natural de l'Albufera'' ("Albufera Natural Park"), with a surface area of . The natural biodiversity of the nature reserve allows a great variety of fauna and flora to thrive and be observed year-round. While once a saltwater lagoon, dilution due to irrigation and canals draining into the estuary and the sand bars increasing in size had converted it to freshwater by the seventeenth century. ==Geography== The Albufera lagoon lies within these municipal areas of the Valencian Community:Pinedo, El palmar, Alfafar, Sedaví, Massanassa, Catarroja, Albal, Beniparrell, Silla, Sollana, Sueca, Cullera, Albalat de la Ribera, and Algemesí. Its proximity, south of the city of Valencia, and easy access facilitate nature experiences and birdwatching. Since 1990, the Albufera Nature Reserve has been included as a Ramsar Site in the list of wetlands of international importance for birds, established in the Ramsar Convention of 1971. Since 1991 the ''Parc Natural de l'Albufera'' has also been included in the Special Protection Areas (''Zepa'' in Spanish).
