The transformation of the Sau reservoir
Recent rains have revitalized the Sau reservoir, which now shows a renewed and splendid image. This change has been seen not only in nature, but also in the economic opportunities that surround this natural gem.
Aquatresports: a return to normal
Aquaterraclub, a benchmark in water leisure activities, has been present in Sau for two decades. For three years, however, the drought has limited its operations. Marc Álvarez, his director, expresses his enthusiasm for reopening: ‘People were anxious to return to the swamp.’
Activities and expectations
He feared that they could not start the season until the summer, but the reality has exceeded expectations. This weekend, Aquaterraclub has scheduled kayak excursions and already has reservations for Easter.
Unique experiences in the marsh
Carla Cabello, recently converted to an age, has organized a special day to celebrate with her friends in the swamp. The kayak departure has been one of its outstanding activities, with a mixture of excitement and excitement among the participants.
Memories of a different swamp
Natalia Vaca and Kourra Diakite shared their memories of an earlier experience, where the water level was so low that they could see the submerged church. ‘We didn’t expect to enjoy this quiet and idyllic space,’ says Yaroslaba Kantalyan.
The ability of swamp and perspectives
Currently, the Sau reservoir has reached 72% of its capacity, thanks to recent rains and the relaxation of drought restrictions. Marc Álvarez acknowledges that the early opening has been a pleasant surprise, with expectations to extend the season to the fall.
Challenges in the sector
However, the road has not been easy. Companies had to face a significant increase in the ACA -imposed navigation rate, which increased by 900%last year. After negotiations, a moratorium has been achieved that relieved the economic pressure on the operators.
Access regulations to the swamp
From this Saturday, vehicles that access the leisure area of the reservoir will have to make a reservation in advance. This measure, active until November 2, seeks to better manage the capacity and preserve the natural heritage of the area.
Opinions of visitors
Maribel, one of the visitors this weekend, has expressed his satisfaction with the access regulations. “It is a beautiful natural space that deserves to be taken care of and respected,” he said, emphasizing the importance of enjoying the reservoir without overloading it.
