During this ‘Go Slow’ tour, based at a highly rated hotel in the heart of historic Malaga, we hope to showcase both the varied birdlife of the Costa del Sol and to immerse ourselves in some of the elegant historical, cultural and gastronomic highlights of the city.

Our birdwatching excursions will take us to karst plateau, mountains, lakes, gorges and marshes in search of El Torcal, a stunning karst plateau in the very heart of Malaga province on which several sought-after Mediterranean species breed. These include summer visitors such as Black-eared Wheatear, Orphean, Subalpine and Melodious Warblers, as well as resident mountain birds such as Griffon Vulture, Blue Rock Thrush and Rock Bunting.

The proximity of these productive birding sites to our base will leave us with time to enjoy the historic city of Malaga and its many places of interest, including the Roman Theatre, the Picasso Museum, La Concepcion Botanical Gardens and the magnificent cathedral.  This is a tour for those who like to combine birding on holiday with other interests, and it should certainly appeal to the ‘foodies’ among you. We hope you will join us!

  • Up to 18 species of raptor, plus a wealth of migrant passerines 
  • Wetlands thronged with breeding ducks, terns and flamingoes
  • Woodland and scrub species including warblers, Firecrest, Crested Tit, Orphean Warbler and Woodchat Shrike
  • Beautiful hotel in historic Malaga, close to restaurants, museums and galleries
  • Varied scenery includes mountains, forests and river valleys, many designated UNESCO and Natura 2000 sites
[introduction] => A gentle-paced week in the Mediterranean, combining some spring birdwatching with the region's cultural, historical and gastronomic highlights. [edges] => Array ( ) [locations] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => Spain [description] =>

Our wildlife tours in Spain focus on the outstanding habitats that remain in this wonderful country – the second largest in western Europe. While enjoying some outstanding birding, mammal-watching, butterflying or botany, we also enjoy plenty of the warm hospitality beloved by Spaniards, together with tasty regional cuisine and some of the world’s smoothest and best-value wines.  Amongst our favourite areas in Spain are the jagged mountains of the Picos de Europa and Pyrenees, while the sun-kissed steppes of Extremadura also hold a special appeal, as do the world-class wetlands of Coto Donana and the migration hotspot of Tarifa.


From extensive deciduous forests to alpine meadows and expansive steppe and wetlands, we offer tours that go in search of particularly charismatic species such as Iberian Lynx and Iberian Wolves, while other holidays are more general in their appeal, enjoying whatever birds, butterflies and alpine flowers that we come across, all in spectacular settings.

In short, Spain’s warm, friendly people, delicious food, diverse landscapes, pleasant climate and superb wildlife make it an excellent choice for a natural history holiday.

During this ‘Go Slow’ tour, based at a highly rated hotel in the heart of historic Malaga, we hope to showcase both the varied birdlife of the Costa del Sol and to immerse ourselves in some of the elegant historical, cultural and gastronomic highlights of the city.

Beginning with direct regional flights from around the UK to Malaga, each day on tour will involve a full morning’s birdwatching to a range of habitats within an easy drive of our hotel. After a full morning out and a picnic lunch, a period of rest and relaxation will follow before a cultural visit and an evening dinner either in our hotel or in a selection of Malaga’s excellent restaurants, each hand-picked for tastiness and authenticity.

Our birdwatching excursions will take us to karst plateau, mountains, lakes, gorges and marshes in search of El Torcal, a stunning karst plateau in the very heart of Malaga province on which several sought-after Mediterranean species breed. These include summer visitors such as Black-eared Wheatear, Orphean, Subalpine and Melodious Warblers, as well as resident mountain birds such as Griffon Vulture, Blue Rock Thrush and Rock Bunting.

An hour from the city, the lake of Fuente de Piedra holds the second largest Greater Flamingo breeding colony in the Mediterranean. Gull-billed Terns and Red-crested Pochards breed here while surrounding farmland supports Crested and Calandra Larks and Montagu’s Harriers, while just north of Malaga, the nature reserve of Montes de Malaga offers a mosaic of different habitats, fine views and birds such as Booted and Short-toed Eagles, Western Bonelli’s Warbler, Firecrest and Short-toed Treecreeper.

 ‘El Chorro’ is the name given by locals to the Desfiladero de Los Gaitanes (Gorge of the Vultures) Nature Reserve. It is the spectacular gorge in which three rivers converge to form the lower Guadalhorce. The stunning cliffs of the gorge, of great interest to geologists, are home to Griffon Vultures, Red-billed Choughs, Peregrine, Rock Bunting, Black Wheatear, Blue Rock Thrush, Dartford Warbler and Crag Martin. By way of contract, the protected saltmarsh and reedbeds of the Guadalhorce estuary today comprises what remains of what was once a vast marsh that extended over the whole delta of the river. We’ll look for the sought-after White-headed Duck and Kentish Plover here, as well as Black-winged Stilt, Little Bittern, Audouin’s and Slender-billed Gulls.

The proximity of these productive birding sites to our base will leave us with time to enjoy the historic city of Malaga and its many places of interest, including the Roman Theatre, the Picasso Museum, La Concepcion Botanical Gardens, the magnificent cathedral and the bay.  This is a tour for those who like to combine birding on holiday with other interests, and it should certainly appeal to the ‘foodies’ among you. We hope you will join us!

offers 3-star accommodation from which to explore the delights of Coto Doñana. With its whitewashed buildings (that include a magnificent church) and its sandy streets, there is something of the American Wild West about this picturesque village. The hotel sits on the shores of the Madre de las Marismas; part of one of the finest wetlands in Europe with excellent prospects for the keen birder. Guests can enjoy delicious fare and local manzanilla sherries from the restaurant whilst taking in far reaching views across the wetlands, which can include Black-crowned Night Herons leaving their roosts in the evenings. Pre-dinner strolls along the promenade are often rewarded with such species as Purple Gallinule, Little Bittern, Nightingale, Cetti’s Warbler, Bee-eater, Shoveler, Pintail, Greater Flamingoes and Glossy Ibis.

Each room is rustically decorated in a Mediterranean style, with its own facilities, and most feature a cosy fireplace for cooler nights. The terrace that surrounds the outdoor swimming pool affords far flung views, which can be enjoyed with a refreshing drink from the on-site bar. Júzcar has an interesting quirk; the village used to be a typically white-washed Spanish settlement until it was painted blue when used as the location for “The Smurfs” movie! For those interested in culture, it is also excellently placed for a visit to the great white town of Ronda, which lies 20 kilometres away.

Summary

During this ‘Go Slow’ tour, based at a highly rated hotel in the heart of historic Malaga, we hope to showcase both the varied birdlife of the Costa del Sol and to immerse ourselves in some of the elegant historical, cultural and gastronomic highlights of the city.

Beginning with direct regional flights from around the UK to Malaga, each day on tour will involve a full morning’s birdwatching to a range of habitats within an easy drive of our hotel. After a full morning out and a picnic lunch, a period of rest and relaxation will follow before a cultural visit and an evening dinner either in our hotel or in a selection of Malaga’s excellent restaurants, each hand-picked for tastiness and authenticity.

Our birdwatching excursions will take us to karst plateau, mountains, lakes, gorges and marshes in search of El Torcal, a stunning karst plateau in the very heart of Malaga province on which several sought-after Mediterranean species breed. These include summer visitors such as Black-eared Wheatear, Orphean, Subalpine and Melodious Warblers, as well as resident mountain birds such as Griffon Vulture, Blue Rock Thrush and Rock Bunting.

An hour from the city, the lake of Fuente de Piedra holds the second largest Greater Flamingo breeding colony in the Mediterranean. Gull-billed Terns and Red-crested Pochards breed here while surrounding farmland supports Crested and Calandra Larks and Montagu’s Harriers, while just north of Malaga, the nature reserve of Montes de Malaga offers a mosaic of different habitats, fine views and birds such as Booted and Short-toed Eagles, Western Bonelli’s Warbler, Firecrest and Short-toed Treecreeper.

 ‘El Chorro’ is the name given by locals to the Desfiladero de Los Gaitanes (Gorge of the Vultures) Nature Reserve. It is the spectacular gorge in which three rivers converge to form the lower Guadalhorce. The stunning cliffs of the gorge, of great interest to geologists, are home to Griffon Vultures, Red-billed Choughs, Peregrine, Rock Bunting, Black Wheatear, Blue Rock Thrush, Dartford Warbler and Crag Martin. By way of contract, the protected saltmarsh and reedbeds of the Guadalhorce estuary today comprises what remains of what was once a vast marsh that extended over the whole delta of the river. We’ll look for the sought-after White-headed Duck and Kentish Plover here, as well as Black-winged Stilt, Little Bittern, Audouin’s and Slender-billed Gulls.

The proximity of these productive birding sites to our base will leave us with time to enjoy the historic city of Malaga and its many places of interest, including the Roman Theatre, the Picasso Museum, La Concepcion Botanical Gardens, the magnificent cathedral and the bay.  This is a tour for those who like to combine birding on holiday with other interests, and it should certainly appeal to the ‘foodies’ among you. We hope you will join us!

Reviews

S.S., Cambridgeshire, May 25, Jun 2025

Based on a very comfortable hotel in central Malaga, we went by minibus to a variety of amazing locations, enjoying the scenery, the wildflowers and of course the birds. The guides were so very knowledgeable and fun to be with; the picnics with local cheeses and other delights were great. Altogether a brilliant week!
