Liminka Bay is a true birdwatcher’s paradise. Every spring and autumn, thousands of migratory birds stop here to rest and feed during their long journeys. The open coastal meadows, maintained by grazing cattle in summer, create ideal living conditions for many rare and endangered bird and plant species.
