These freshwater bodies are
formed when rainwater collects
during the wet season.
When this rainwater is mixed
with seawater during high tides,
it creates an ideal environment
for fish, shellfish, and mollusks.,
These bodies of water serve as breeding
and refuge areas for
many species.

Additionally, mangroves protect
the island by preventing erosion
and shoreline loss.

This ecosystem is a
vital source of food and shelter
for many resident and
migratory birds.Therefore,
one of our goals is
to promote recognition
of the area's value for birdwatching
within the community,
and to increase knowledge
of the species that
inhabit it.
