Celebrate World Wetlands Day 2025 with an enriching experience at Tralee Bay Wetlands Eco & Activity Park this January and February. Join us for a series of guided nature walks designed to showcase the breathtaking beauty and critical importance of wetlands. Part funded by Kerry County Council, these walks promise to inspire a deeper appreciation for these vital ecosystems while offering a serene escape into nature.
Why Wetlands Matter
Wetlands play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity, supporting food and water supplies, and combating climate change. World Wetlands Day, celebrated annually on February 2nd, reminds us of our collective responsibility to protect these essential habitats. This year’s theme, “Protecting Wetlands for Our Common Future,” highlights the importance of preserving these natural treasures for generations to come.
Join our guided walks to learn about the ecological wonders of Tralee Bay, our Wetlands Ecology Park, and Ballyseedy Woods. Discover how wetlands serve as nature’s guardians, providing homes for countless species and acting as natural buffers against extreme weather events.
