The Tiszafüred-Örvény basin area connected to the port is a protected part of the UNESCO World Heritage site of Hortobágy National Park.
The Tiszavirág nature trail is built on stilts, allowing visitors to walk directly over the marshland and submerged forest patches.
The port provides direct water-based access to the 'Tisza-tó' (Lake Tisza), which is the second-largest lake in Hungary.
The area is a significant habitat for protected species, including the white-tailed eagle and the grey heron.
The port infrastructure is specifically designed to manage the unique water level fluctuations of the river Tisza.
Szabics Kikötő és Szabadidőpart serves as a primary gateway to the wilderness areas of Lake Tisza, located on the edge of Tiszafüred. The site features an extensive educational trail system, specifically the Tiszavirág (Mayfly) nature trail, which provides access to the inner water channels of the Tisza river basin. Visitors can rent canoes, kayaks, and motorboats to explore the surrounding protected wetlands and reed beds. The facility maintains a designated leisure area with picnic spots, a playground, and basic amenities for families and nature enthusiasts. It functions as a key launching point for guided birdwatching tours focused on the diverse avian species of the Hortobágy National Park periphery. The port area also serves as a recreational mooring location for local fishermen and small watercraft.
