The coastline and heaths of Suffolk are home to an incredible variety of habitats which support a great diversity of wildlife with no end of stunning birds, insects and wildflowers to be observed.
This historic county in East Anglia is bordered by Norfolk to the north, Cambridgeshire to the west and Essex to the south. The North Sea encloses it to the east, along fifty miles of beautiful coastline. The county is low-lying but has hills of glacial origin (especially in the west). It is largely arable but includes the southern reaches of the Broads along its border with Norfolk.
The Suffolk Coast and Heaths are an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and embrace many of Eastern England's most cherished nature reserves, with an astonishing diversity of habitats and wildlife. They include RSPB Minsmere, North Warren, Boyton and Hollesley Marshes, National Trust Dunwich Heath and Westleton Heath National Nature Reserve.
The county of Suffolk offers some of the best birdwatching in England at any time of year. In late spring, this beautiful and hugely diverse stretch of coastline and extensive heaths are home to an extraordinary range of breeding birds such as avocet, bittern, stone curlew and bearded tit.
