As El Rocío sits right on the northwestern edge of the Parque Nacional de Doñana, it's in an area rich in wildlife. The village itself is located on the Marismas del Rocío, a marshland area where there are many birds, particularly in spring, including flamingoes, herons and storks. Near the church running alongside the wetlands is the Paseo Marismeño, an excellent birdwatching spot
