In it there are two types of wetlands mainly: The Estuary, affected by waves of low intensity and changes in the tides; and the Palustrino, which is mostly freshwater and depends on the ebb and flow of the tides. 50% of the Refuge is made up of three types of mangroves (red mangrove, white mangrove, and black mangrove) that grow within, between, and on the edge of three dikes (West Dike, North Dike, and East Dike) totaling 4km in length. . These support a reservoir that receives water from five sources: three main ones: Valle de Lajas, Laguna de Rincón and runoff from the southern section of the Refuge, and two secondary ones: runoff from the Valle de Lajas irrigation canals and the Boqueron creek.
