A coastal patch in the southeast of Northumberland with a long history of attracting rare birds on migration, as well as seabirds and waders.
A sheltered cove with shrubby cover offering migrating birds a safe place when caught by bad weather while flying over the North Sea, Tynemouth Haven has an impressive list of rarities, including Pisco-de-peito-azul, Chasco-de-peito-preto, Felosa de Schwarz, Felosa-sombria, Felosa-troquilóide, Rouxinol-grande-dos-caniços, and many more. The cliffs on the adjacent Priory hold a substantial colony of Gaivota-tridáctila and a smaller number of Fulmar-glacial, and have one or two wintering Rabirruivo-preto in most years. The mostly stony beaches are good for Rola-do-mar and Pilrito-escuro, as well as resident breeding Petinha-marítima and an occasional Ganso-de-faces-negras in autumn. In late summer, a large post-breeding tern roost gathers to feed where the River Tyne flows into the sea; it often includes a number of Andorinha-do-mar-róseas, and also attracts Moleiro-parasíticos which chase the terns to make them drop their food. The large flocks of gulls (mostly Gaivota-argêntea) gathering here are also worth checking, with regular Gaivota-hiperbórea and Gaivota-polar in the winter.
Very easily accessible by public transport (bus 306 from Newcastle; also Tynemouth Metro rail station just 10 minutes walk away) as well as cycle or car. The hilly nature of the site makes wheelchair use difficult, though not impossible; it is easy for battery-powered wheelchairs, as the paving is good quality.
The site can also be seen from arriving and departing DFDS ferries on the Newcastle – Amsterdam route, with the seabirds at least viewable from the ferry.
Note that following severe storm damage in November 2021 (Storm Arwen), the North Pier is currently closed; due to the extent of the damage, this is expected to stay so for several years.
