Description
Aberlady Bay Local Nature Reserve boasts an amazing variety of habitats from the sea to woodland; through saltmarsh, sand dunes and scrub. These are all moulded and shaped by nature, largely away from the influence of people. The main path leads visitors around the site, past all the different habitats, and away from important refuge areas for wildlife. Dogs are not welcome on the reserve due to the potential for disturbing nesting and or roosting birds.
