Projecting into the English Channel close to the narrowest crossing, Dungeness is a migratory hot-spot. At this season there will be a lot of incoming birds, as well as movement of sea-birds along the coast. The reserve has a mix of pools and vast areas of shingle and scrub, while the shore provides superb sea-viewing. Almost anything can turn up and rarities are highly likely. Highly recommended

Depart Finchampstead Memorial Hall at 7.30 am. A PICK-UP AT WHITEKNIGHTS MAIN ENTRANCE AT 7. A.M. MAY BE ARRANGED IF THERE IS SUFFICIENT DEMAND

Normal comfort stops on way there and back. Return circa 7 p.m.

Cost £17 per person
