Being in the position that it is, Borgo Alle Coccinelle offers
a variety of touristic possiblities. Within the city limits of Santa
Luce you'll find the Lipu Oasis, with
over 150 species on its grounds.
In Winter the oasis is populated by multicolored ducks like the
Great Bittern, the Green
winged Teal, the Mallard and
the Eurasian Wigeon, while the cormorants
make a show posing on the tree branches with their wings spread
wide to take in the warmth of the sun. There are also many migratory
birds, especially herons such as the Black
Crowned Night heron, the Little Egret,
the Little Bittern and the Red Heron
who pass by here on their long journey to rest on the lake's shores.
In an ecosystem like that of the lake is home to an enormous collection
of life and biological diversity like the elegant dragonflies, colorful
butterflies and great night sphinxes. All of this can be seen up
close at the oasis thanks to the many trails in place. For children
there are educational possiblities for learing about plants.
