Talking of Porbandar Bird Sanctuary, the first thing that hits the mind is that small piece of great attraction. Though stretched over an area of only 1 sq.kms, yet it is the best source of entertainment especially for bird watchers. This sanctuary is a home to so many different types of species of birds like Pelicans, ibis, fowls, Herons, Terns, Avocets, Spoonbills, Little Grebes, Whistling Teals, Coots, Ruffs, Jacanas, Flamingoes, and many other migratory birds. Therefore, the sanctuary must also be marked in the list of attractions to be covered during your visit to Porbandar, the birth place of Mahatma Gandhi in Gujarat.
