South Stack Cliffs Nature Reserve

Set on the western edge of Anglesey, the dramatic cliffs, wide seascape and heather-covered landscapes of the RSPB's South Stack reserve offer something for everyone.  

The cliffs bustle with seabirds (including a small number of puffins) from early May until mid August, when spring flowers give way to the purple hues of autumn as the heather begins to flower.  

The rare and beautiful chough, with its distinctive red bill and feet, can be seen all year.  Ellin's Tower information centre provides spectacular views over the seabird cliffs and across the Irish Sea, and a network of paths provide access to the whole reserve.
