Situation: In the suroccidental coast of the province of Almeria, within the municipal term of Adra. Access: highway N-340 to height of kilometer 66, from where it leaves a way that is branched off immediately in two, one that it leads until the beach and other that borders by its South side the Lagoons. Natural terrain features The interest of this area exclusively resides in the wealth and variety of its sheltered aquatic fauna in the pools, that constitute the set of the Lagoons, (Deep Lagoon, New Lagoon, etc..). As far as the landscape we can say that he is not one of the attractiveness of the Lagoons, due to the strong degradation to which they are put under by the human action that, gradually, has been transforming this Natural Place into a set of conservatories and cultures in sanding, that really drown to pools and make difficult the access them. However, the existence of a mass of water surrounded by reeds, masiegas and eneas lock up doubtless attractive an aesthetic one The génesis of this type of complex to lagunar efectua from a primitive bay closed by marine deposits, was caused by the contributions of the channel of the Boulevards of the Rosebays and the Estanquera and the construction of the fishing port of Adra. The existence of endorréicos processes is pronounced at the moment with the birth of the small New lagoon between Great and the line of beach.
