Salva Fauna

Salva Fauna is an Algarve-based outfit running ethical wildlife photography and birding day trips along Portugal's southern coast. Operating under Portuguese tour-operator licence RNAAT 330/2024, the team meets clients in Tavira, Faro or Lagos and explores the saltpans, lagoons and coastal scrub of the eastern Algarve, regularly notching up 80-plus species on a single outing. Guides Jonathan and Miguel lead small private groups in English and French, with an emphasis on responsible field practice rather than rare-bird chasing. The Algarve's mix of resident Mediterranean specialists and abundant wintering waders makes Salva Fauna a useful option for visitors basing themselves on the coast.
