Holme Dunes National Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

Located on the northwest tip of Norfolk where The Wash flows into the North Sea, Holme Dunes nature reserve attracts thousands of migrating birds and diverse wildlife. Look out for avocet, barn owls, warblers and wheaters, as well as natterjack toads and dragonflies.

The reserve also has plenty of interesting historical sites. In 1998, a well-preserved Bronze Age timber circle which was dubber 'Seahenge' was uncovered here. Seahenge is now housed in the King's Lynn Museum. You will also see military remains from WWII such as the remnants of a target-railway.

On a clear day you can see all the way across The Wash to Skegness from Old Hunstanton Beach. The long sandy bay welcomes dogs all year round so is perfect for hikes with your four legged friends. At low tide wading birds gather on the shoreline so bring some binoculars.
