ESTERO FISH: WHEN THE LANDSCAPE SHAPES A TRULY UNIQUE PRODUCT

About us

ESTEROS LUBIMAR

Since 1986, Esteros Lubimar has been dedicated to the farming and commercialization of premium fish, such as sea bass and sea bream. The project currently spans seven locations across the provinces of Cádiz and Huelva.

Nestled within marshes in natural landscapes, parks, and reserves, these esteros (traditional salt-marsh ponds) produce fish of exceptional quality.

This project does more than guarantee a superior product; it actively contributes to the recovery and conservation of the local flora and fauna, reaffirming sustainability as one of its core, intrinsic principles.

UNIQUE CIRCUMSTANCES

THE ESTERO

We were born with the purpose of recovering and enhancing a millenary, nearly forgotten farming technique: the estero. We placed our trust in what the land and sea could provide, seeking out the finest team of professionals to develop this project.

In the estero, sea bass and glithead sea bream take center stage, but they are not alone. These waters also offer a wide variety of naturally occurring fish, shellfish, and mollusks, such as grey mullet, meager, sole, white seabream, and eel. High-quality shrimp and king prawns are raised here, alongside oysters, clams, and a rich diversity of seaweed.

Nature sets the pace: sea bass and sea bream require up to three years to reach 1 kg in weight, growing according to their natural life cycle. Throughout this time,
they swim tirelessly against the swell generated by the Levante wind in the estero, developing a lean silhouette and a fat infiltration that enhances their unique flavor and texture.

Their diet is another key factor: they feed on what the marsh itself provides—shrimp, small fish, and mollusks—a diet supplemented with feed made from
sustainably caught fish.
