Birdwatching in Souss-Massa

A full day for people who travel with binoculars. A specialist birding guide takes you through Souss-Massa National Park, home to the northern bald ibis, and explains the habitats and the migration that brings many species through the area.

Species often seen in the park include the northern bald ibis, crested lark, Bonelli's eagle, red-necked nightjar, woodchat shrike and striolated bunting. After a traditional Moroccan lunch near the park, the afternoon is at the Massa River wetlands, with waders and waterbirds such as black-winged stilt, ruddy shelduck, little egret, marsh harrier and greater flamingo, plus Moussier's redstart in the scrub.

Sightings depend on the season. Entry fees and lunch are included. For a shorter visit focused on the park's mammals, see Souss-Massa National Park.
