Snettisham Wader Spectacular & Sunset Workshop – 11th September 2026

£45.00

Date: Friday 11th September 2026. 5:30 pm to around 9 pm

Price: £45 per person
Group Size: 10
Fitness Level: Moderate. Around 2km walk over shingle to the wader point at the Jetty

Photography Opportunities:

This is one of the most extraordinary natural events in Britain, and the timing on this evening is perfect. As a very high spring tide pushes in across The Wash, tens of thousands of knot, oystercatchers and dunlin are forced off the mudflats and take to the air at once — a swirling, shape-shifting spectacle that's been likened to a starling murmuration on a vast scale. We'll photograph the whirling flocks as the tide drives them in, then turn to the lagoons and sky for golden-hour landscapes as the sun sets. A genuinely rare combination of wildlife and landscape photography in one magical evening. Some prior camera knowledge is useful as we'll be working with fast movement and changing light.

IMPORTANT Please park at Snettisham Beach car park, not the RSPB reserve car park (which requires pre-booking on spectacular dates). Details sent on booking.
