BOOKING ESSENTIAL
To book your place, email info@spurnbirdobservatory.co.uk.
Meet at the Spurn Bird Observatory hostel on Kilnsea Road (HU12 0UB) between Driftwood Caravan Site and Crown & Anchor Pub 10 minutes before the start time.
Both routes are relatively flat but are on uneven surfaces, so sturdy footwear is necessary. There are public toilets located at Blue Bell car park and YWT Discovery Centre, but there are no facilities north of the hostel.
The guide will wait a maximum of 5 minutes after the start time before setting off with the group, so please arrive in plenty of time to avoid delaying the group.
