March to JulyAbout the reserve
Stunning sea views and excellent views of nesting puffins can be seen from the cliff tops from mid May to mid July. (Be sure to join us at our annual Yorkshire Puffin Festival every May/June.) Look out too for fulmar, kittiwake, guillemots and razorbills. It's a great place for bird and sea-watching during spring and autumn migrations.

Yorkshire's puffins
Beautifully decorated with its multicoloured beak, heavy eyeshadow and distinguished black and white suit, the puffin is easily Yorkshire’s most iconic and charismatic seabird. If you’ve ever seen one, you’ll know it’s hard not to fall for these clifftop characters.
