On the stunning north Norfolk coast, Titchwell Marsh is one of the RSPB's most popular reserves. It has something for everyone, from beginners to seasoned birdwatchers on the lookout for a rarity. Hundreds of thousands of migrating birds pass through in spring and autumn, and many spend winter here, giving you an unrivalled opportunity to see many species of ducks, waders, seabirds and geese. In spring and summer, Titchwell is home to the RSPB's emblem bird, the avocet; this rare wader has nested on the lagoons since 1984.

General Information: Large visitor centre, shop and cafe. The shop has a large selection of optical equipment, books, outdoor clothing and bird care products. RSPB staff and volunteers are available at all times to give up to date information and advice.
