RSPB

One of the country's top wildlife spectacles, around half a million seabirds on towering chalk cliffs. Amongst them are thousands of the UK's largest seabird, the gannet, and, from April to the end of July, puffins.

Six safe viewing platforms give incredible views of the nesting birds and their young. 

A nature trail winds its way around the meadow, and a bird-feeding garden provides a quiet place to sit and enjoy bird songs.

Cliff top paths offer wonderful walks in all seasons with stunning views over the dramatic North Sea. Open all year, in autumn/winter, hunting barn owls and sometimes visiting short-eared owls, along with migratory birds, can be spotted. 

Inside the Seabird Centre, as well as a cafe and a well-stocked gift shop, there's information on the wildlife that makes its home here. 

Events and activities for all ages take place regularly. We are a truly accessible nature reserve with hard-surfaced paths and ramped viewing platforms that have wheelchair/pushchair bays.
