Beskrivning

Flamborough Head has one of the most important seabird colonies in Europe. In summer the cliffs are packed with tens of thousands of breeding tordmule, havssula, sillgrissla, gulls and lunnefågel, creating a memorable experience. Scarce migrants are also frequently seen, including tajgasångare. Throughout the year North Landing provides endless opportunities for rock pooling with starfish, crabs, fish and an array of marine molluscs to be found as well as a rich and varied carpet of seaweeds. Just be careful to watch the tides!
