Beschrijving
Spurn Point is one of the most striking features of Britain's coastline, stretching for three and a half miles across the Humber Estuary. This curving spit is only 50 metres wide in places, making it look like an elongated tongue. Habitats found here include chalk grassland, mature sand dunes, sandy beaches on the seaward side and mud flats on the estuary side. A Mecca of 327 hectares for birdwatchers. Many rarities can be spotted here, along with thousands of migrants and winter visitors. See the birdlist below.
