Description
Kilnsea is a stop off point for North/South migrants and first landfall for East/West migrants. A visit in autumn or winter will give you a chance to see large numbers of roosting waders which this site has been specifically designed for. Check the tides to coincide your visit with high tide and you’re likely to see greater numbers.
