Low tidal waters in the Bijagós Archipelago of Guinea-Bissau expose sandflats and mudflats that support a variety of invertebrates and attract migratory shorebirds. The archipelago's coastal landforms are a key habitat for these species. The area's unique ecosystem makes it a crucial stopover point for birds migrating through the region.
