Whether you are an experienced birdwatcher, someone familiar with birds in your own garden or completely new to bird-watching, you will see an amazing variety of wild birds on this visit.  The reserve at Elmley, located close to the Isle of Sheppey bridge, comprises 3,300 acres of farmland and extensive reedbeds, with purpose-built hides overlooking lagoons, accessed by a track that follows the Swale seawall.

The visit will last a minimum of four hours and include a light luncheon following our bird-watching tour.  Visitors will be transported from the reserve buildings to each of two birdwatching hides; there will therefore be a limited amount of flat to slightly uneven walking involved.

The cost will be £65 per person.

Closing date for bookings is 5 May 2023.  A maximum of 20 visitors means places will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis.

Dress code:  Bring clothing suitable for all weather conditions and walking shoes.
