Divjakë-Karavasta National Park

Divjakë-Karavasta National Park is a national park located in western Albania, stretching across a plain region near the Adriatic Sea. The park contains many wetlands, salt marshes, coastal meadows, and floodplains, as well as estuarine reed beds.
The park’s forests vary from conifers to deciduous trees and forests, where Aleppo pine and trees predominate, in addition to junipers, willows, oak, alder, elm and ash trees. The park also provides a fertile environment for flocks of migratory birds of international importance, such as the threatened Dalmatian pelican, and there are many species of mammals, especially threatened ones, such as the red fox, the golden jackal, and the European roe deer.
