If you're looking for a truly wild location with great vistas, the Dee Estuary which spans the English Welsh border is an absolute must.

It's one of Britain's best year round bird reserves, and is an autumn hotspot for thousands of wildfowl and waders.

Helford Estuary

  • Helford boasts a variety of wildlife and marine habitats from rocky shores and reefs to sandbars and mud flats.

"We all know that estuaries are good places to find birds. But when the tide's out they can be a long way off.
