Jardines de Muelle
These are the best-kept gardens in Huelva and very lovely, but not exactly a quiet and reflective place, due to the busy roads and bus station in the area. The gardens are also located next to the River Odiel. There are many varieties of tropical trees and shrubs growing here, as well as beautiful tended flower beds. The gardens are home to well-known statue of Alonso Sánchez, the man who preceded Columbus in attempts to explore the Americas.

El Conquero and Parque Moret
These are two adjacent parks in Huelva, on either side of the Avenida Manuel Siurot. Typical of the city’s parks, they have a somewhat neglected appearance, but are still worth visiting for the open space and great views that they offer. From the elevation of the parks, one can see a wonderful view of the Odiel estuary. Parque Moret also contains a large woodland area, including fruit trees and communal gardens along one of its edges.

Doñana National Park
The edge of this immense national park begins about 16 kilometers southeast of Huelva, but is well worth a day trip out of the city, especially for nature lovers. The park is over 1,300 square kilometers in total and extends out of Huelva into the provinces of Sevilla and Cádiz. It is one of the most important wetland reserves in Europe, but in addition to marshlands also includes Mediterranean scrubland and coastal dunes. It is a popular place to go birdwatching as it is home to a great variety of species and a major stop for migrating birds. The park has a long history as land set aside for wildlife, and was designated as a hunting ground for the Castilian kings as early as the 13th century. Access to the park is strictly controlled, and you must enter at one of the official entrances. The main entrance at El Acebuche is the nearest to Huelva, about 45 km from the city centre, and is accessible by car and bus. The La Rocina entrance at El Rocío is not much further, about 49 km from Huelva. There are a variety of guided tours offered.
