Ebro Delta Birding is a family run enterprise led by Al Henderson, providing multi-day guided bird watching holidays or, alternatively, birding day trips of the Ebro Delta and surrounding areas of NE Spain. We specialize in bookings for small groups between 2 - 6 people, allowing us to tailor our tours to meet your specific goals; be that general bird watching, bird photography or maybe searching for an elusive rarity for your birding life list! We are more than happy to cater for bird watchers of all knowledge levels ranging from novice through to aficionado.
Al, originally from Yorkshire in the UK, has been an avid bird-watching fanatic since childhood and has been living on the Ebro Delta for more than 22 years. During this time, many hours have been spent observing the amazing bird-life of the region - and learning where to find even the most elusive of them at different times of the year. In early 2018, Ebro Delta Birding was founded with the intention of passing on this local expertise to fellow birders keen to discover this bird watching paradise.
We offer a range of guided bird watching excursions to suit our clients needs. If you are interested in a complete multi-day birding holiday, we have itineraries of different duration to suit your requirements. Our long birding tours include exclusive accommodation at our private villa, along with private airport transfers. Some of our multi-day itineraries also visit great birding sites beyond the Ebro Delta, with excursions to some of Catalonia & Aragon's other outstanding birding habitats of mountains and Steppe lands.
Alternatively, we also cater for clients who are visiting the Delta region and are looking for an expert to show them around on a bird watching day trip. We currently have 3 different birding day tours available to choose from; a classic birding day trip around the Ebro Delta by car & foot, a bird watching boat tour of the Ebro river on our privately owned Skiff or a mountain bird watching day trip to the nearby Els Ports natural park.
Our bird watching tours are provided with a personalized touch - all of our excursions are run solely by Al. We aim to be client led and offer flexibility in terms of your objectives for the day. By catering for small parties or private groups we do not find ourselves having to 'balance' different needs of different clients. Our mission at Ebro Delta Birding is to provide memorable bird watching experiences for clients of all knowledge levels at affordable & realistic prices!

The Ebro Delta is one of the most famous river deltas in Europe and is situated in North Eastern Spain on the Mediterranean coastline, approximately midway between the cities of Barcelona and Valencia.
It is primarily a wetland location containing 320 square kilometers of Natural Park with a wide variety of aquatic environments. Different habitats include river, lagoons, sand dunes, salt marshes, beaches, woodland and agricultural zones. These diverse locations provide micro habitats for a huge abundance and variety of bird-life, and it is a key breeding site for many rare species of birds. For people planning their bird watching holidays, the Ebro Delta is an area that demands your attention!
The Ebro Delta has a recorded species list in excess of 360! perhaps the question should be what birds won't I see...
