In 1952 Aberlady Bay Local Nature Reserve was the first site in the UK to be designated a nature reserve.
Aberlady Bay Local Nature Reserve boasts an amazing variety of habitats from the sea to woodland; through saltmarsh, sand dunes and scrub. These are all moulded and shaped by nature, largely away from the influence of people. The main path leads visitors around the site, past all the different habitats, and away from important refuge areas for wildlife. Dogs are not welcome on the reserve due to the potential for disturbing nesting and or roosting birds.
The small car park of Aberlady Bay Local Nature Reserve is located just off the A198 to the east of Aberlady village. Click on the P in the map for directions to the car park. There is a small toilet adjacent to the car park. East Coast Buses operate services that passes by the nature reserve, you can ask to be dropped off nearby.
Countryside Ranger Service co-ordinates the day-to-day management of this site.
