RIVERS IN SPAIN


There are more than 1800 rivers in Spain.
The point where a river starts is named "source".
The point where a river flows into the sea is named "mouth".
A small river that flows into a bigger river is named "tributary".
There are three watersheds.
The rivers that flow into the Cantabrian Sea form the Cantabrian watershed. Two of them are Navia and Nalón.
The rivers that flow into the Mediterranean Sea form the Mediterranean watershed. We'll study Ebro, Júcar and Segura.
The rivers that flow into the Atlantic Ocean form the Atlantic watershed. You should know Miño, Duero, Tajo, Guadiana and Guadalquivir.
