Blakeney National Nature Reserve (NNR) forms part of one of the largest expanses of undeveloped coastal habitat in Europe.
The reserve consists of extensive inter-tidal muds and sands, saltmarshes, shingle banks and sand dunes, as well as important freshwater grazing marshes and reedbeds.
Bird-lovers will find this area of particular interest as there are many nationally and internationally important breeding species, wintering waders and wildfowl and passage migrants. The rare habitats are also home to an array of unusual plants and invertebrates. Much of this coast is now protected by national and international law.
