RSPB Bempton Cliffs Nature Reserve

One of England's top wildlife attractions.

Each year over 250,000 seabirds flock to the cliffs between Bempton and Flamborough to find a mate and raise their young.

From April to August the cliffs are alive with nest-building adults and young chicks taking their first faltering steps.

Between mid-April and mid-July the much-loved and elusive Puffin makes its home here.

From February to October thousands of Gannets nest on the cliffs of the only mainland Gannetry in England.

Bempton also has the largest Kittiwake colony in mainland Britain.
