    This is a really amazing place to learn about the bird migration through Israel and why it happens. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and it is certainly worth taking their guided tour. They will only allow guided tours with the Ornithologists who work there so it will always be great. There are many different things to see and hear about so make sure to leave yourself a bit of time.

    Very nice place for wildlife and also very nice park to walk and to enjoy nature. I was in december 2018 which is probably not the best month for wild birds, but I still found a lot of interesting species. I attached some pictures with the birds I found there.

    a very nice "nature" walk with benches to sit relax and watch some birds. not many birds (January). but still worth it. free and open all day.

    Birdwatcher's Mecca :), was unexpectedly interesting tour for me as well. Tens of millions species transfer here every year, small creatures of 15-20 grams doing voyages of 20,000 km every year.... Amazing !

    Really nice place to visit in Eilat (our second time there), definitely maintenance is required here and there but overall I recommended to go and check it out

    Very nice place. Good way of integration of business and the environment.

    We just went there from Jordan for about 3,5 hours because the bird sanctuary of Aqaba doesn't really exist. Someone from our last birding trip recommended this place and it was really worth it to go there! Nicely maintained! We hope that there will be a next visit for us, but then from Israel and not over the border from Jordan. ;)

    The best place for birding Ng and making new experiences. Professional staff around and many interesting people are coming from around the world. The place is real heaven of birds and attracts birders and just nature lovers from around the world. The place is highly recommended to see.

    very nice place to experience. the care of the operators there to birds is heart warming. lots of places to sit and relax against the view. You defenitely should visit on weekdays, probably early morning since other kids visiting there can ruin your experience by mailing noise and other distractions. don't forget to bring your luck so you'll have great sightseeings with birds that will "cooperate" with your visit 🙂. we visited this place by bike, driving along the plantations near the border. recommended!

    Choose the right howers, especially early morning and evening. Location near to the city so hope there will be as less visitors as possible. Take your time, seat in silence and watch the ponds. You will be surprised how many species of birds surround you. Patience & silence will make it worth. During migration from Europe to Africa and during winter time when the sun won't rost you alive, preferable.

    The stuff is very nice, and they explain about the process and the migrating birds in the park. The walk around the pools was very relaxing, bring a binoculars if you have any.

    Awesome place. We lasted 30 minutes in August mid-day, but worth it.

    I recommend driving a car there. We were there 20.02 and we didn't see any interesting birds. I think it's only for people who are interested im birds, nature. Or you have to be when it's season for egzotic birds. The biggest advantage is free entry.
