NWT Cley Marshes

NWT Cley Marshes, perched on the north Norfolk coast, has a well-deserved reputation as one of the UK’s premier bird watching sites and there’s always something to see, whatever time of year you visit. The pools and scrapes, all within easy view of the hides, are flush with unusual and interesting birds throughout the year, and both experienced and new birders will find much to enthral them here. Meandering along the boardwalks and glimpsing the birdlife through the reeds is pure pleasure.
