The blue pelicans feel as comfortable on sandy beaches as in lagoons or the tropical forest, and whoever skillfully uses his cards in order to create the largest possible habitats for these cheeky birds (while developing individual areas for himself) will win the game.
Each turn in Pelican Bay, you choose from two cards to increase the size of your territories and collect as many points as possible. If you make a forest, a beach or a lagoon accessible, the points you receive might even be much higher.
