BIRD WATCHING AT SPURN POINT
Spurn is a three and a half mile long sand and shingle spit, well vegetated with marram grass and sea buckthorn. To the west is an extensive area of tidal mudflats. Spurns location makes it one of the best places on the east coast from which to watch the spring and autumn migrations, and in the winter large numbers of waders and wildfowl gather on the sand and mud of the river Humber. Spurn boasts an impressive list of rarities, which are particularly likely after easterly winds.
Most migration takes place in April and May, and between August and October.
Spurn is located at the mouth of the river Humber (North Side). From Hull follow A1033 to Patrington then B1445 to Easington and then on to Spurn Point.
