Visitor Centre, Cliff Lane, Bempton, Bridlington, East Riding of Yorkshire YO15 1JF, United Kingdom

Description:

A unique attraction of Great Britain is the reserve Bempton Cliffs, specializing in the breeding of sea birds. It stretches for 10 kilometers in the coastal area of East Yorkshire, and in some places reaches more than 100 meters in height.

Bempton Cliffs is home to more than 200,000 seabirds, including cormorants, puffins, and the only Gannets bird colony. The hard chalk of Bempton rock is relatively resistant to erosion and has many protected capes and crevices suitable for bird nesting. There are convenient passages along the top of the cliff, and there are several fenced and well-protected observation points. On the territory of the reserve is a tourist center, engaged in the organization of fascinating excursions to the picturesque corners of the Bempton Cliffs. From the top of the cliffs you can watch one of the largest colonies of seabirds in the UK and admire the breathtaking views of the sea, beating waves against high cliffs.

On the territory of the reserve there is a cafe and a souvenir shop, which is popular with visitors.
