About the event

A southerly gem of Holy Island’s heathland habitat, the spotted rockrose can only be seen a few weeks of the year. Unless you know where to look it's easily missed!

We'll embark on a gentle walk along the coastal path overlooking Trearddur Bay, where we also might see diving terns.

Learn about other habitats on the nature reserve and take part in some coastal exploring, noting what we see as part of the Nature Counts project.

The session will begin promptly at 10:00, so please arrive 15 minutes early. The event organiser speaks conversational Welsh, please feel free to use Welsh or English during this event.

This event is part of our Nature Counts project. During our events, we'll be recording the species we find as part of a citizen science project to help us manage our nature reserves and local habitats. The Nature Counts project is funded by the Heritage Fund and the Welsh Government.
