Las Piñas-Parañaque Wetland Park

Las Piñas-Parañaque Wetland Park is a 181-hectare protected coastal wetland on Manila Bay straddling the cities of Las Piñas and Parañaque in Metro Manila. Declared a critical habitat and Ramsar Wetland of International Importance, it comprises two islands, Freedom Island and Long Island, with mangroves, lagoons, mudflats and ponds. It is notable as Metro Manila's last natural coastal wetland and a key stopover for migratory birds along the East Asian-Australasian Flyway.

Visitors can expect a protected coastal wetland landscape with mangrove forests, tidal mudflats, lagoons and ponds on Freedom Island and Long Island. Access is via guided tours along boardwalks, earthen trails and bird hides. The park offers views of Manila Bay, opportunities to observe migratory and resident birds, and an on-site Wetland Center with exhibits on coastal ecology. The environment is natural and low-impact, with limited built structures focused on conservation and education.
