The reserve will cover more than 2,000ha, of which the strict protection area
will be nearly 800ha, the ecological restoration area will be more than 1,240ha
and the services and administration area will be nearly 30ha.
The reserve foundation aims to restore the habitats and important ecological
systems, biodiversity and
aquatic resources, while developing the number of wild and rare birds.
Tam Giang-Cau Hai is considered the biggest lagoon in Southeast Asia, according
to the provincial people’s committee.
It not only has a high value in terms of natural resources and biodiversity, but
also plays an important role in the ecological
environment,
coastal natural balance and socio-economic development.
The wetlands area covers five coastal districts of Thua
Thien-Hue province
including Phong Dien, Quang Dien, Phu Vang, Phu Loc and Huong Tra.
