A wetland national park on the southern Caspian coast, noted for migratory and waterbird habitats.
Observe the wetland habitat quietly from an authorised location, using binoculars where appropriate. Seasonal bird movements mean sightings vary, and a protected wetland should not be explored by following arbitrary tracks.
Ask the park administration about permitted entrances, trails, tickets and guide requirements. Protected status does not mean unrestricted access to every part of the area.
