Beschreibung
Charmouth is set amongst some of the highest sea cliffs on the South coast of England, some of which are over 600 foot high, the area is renowned for fossils and is part of the Jurassic Coast. The River Char runs through the village and has Eisvogel, Wasseramsel and Gebirgsstelze. The shingle area at the mouth of the River had a Temminckstrandläufer in the past. The small area of reedbeds (Press STAR on map) between the seafront car parks, hold Rohrammer, Teichrohrsänger and can have Wasserralle, Bekassine and the occasional Zwergschnepfe. The car parks in this area can have a large pre-roost gathering of Trauerbachstelze in late afternoons during Winter months, whilst Wanderfalke, Kolkrabe, Schwarzkehlchen and Strandpieper are resident. On beaches waders are only to be found in smaller numbers Sandregenpfeifer, Austernfischer and Steinwälzer being the most common.
WARNING. Due to erosion, cliff falls can happen at any time, walking near cliff edges and at the base of cliffs can be TREACHEROUS.
