Lago di Burano

Tuscany

This brackish lagoon on the southern Maremma coast is managed as a WWF oasis and sits along a major bird migration corridor, drawing herons, ospreys, and occasional flamingos depending on the season. Umbrella pines and Mediterranean scrub separate the lagoon from a quiet stretch of beach beyond the dunes. A watchtower and hides let visitors observe without disturbing the colonies.
