The Multiple Use Reserve “Pozo del Salado-Caleta de los Loros-Punta Mejillón” is located on the northern shore of the San Matías Gulf, east of the province of Río Negro. It extends along a front of approximately 18 km of coastline, including a marine portion, the cove and a continental portion. The reserve was created with the objective of “ensuring the conservation of the coastal sector in the face of human actions and to reconcile natural dynamics with human activity”.

Caleta de los Loros is a site of importance for birds such as the ravine parrot, the flamingo, the gull, the gull, the gull crab, the South American tern, coscorobas, black-necked swans, among others, because it provides a sheltered environment, shallow waters and soft bottoms, which are feeding and resting areas. Another important factor is the reproductive colony of fur seals.

The continental environment is home to species of conservation interest such as the guanaco, gray fox, martinet, mara and choique, typical of Patagonian environments. The dune environments also provide special conditions for species typical of these environments.
