The Bay: A Blueprint for Recovery

Browse The Bay events
Morecambe Bay is an internationally important nature conservation site, supporting one of the biggest over-wintering and passage populations of wading birds and wildfowl in Britain.

Why is Morecambe Bay special for wildlife?

Morecambe Bay is an area of biodiverse coastline making it a hotspot for wildlife, with key areas including:

  • Coastal and floodplain wetlands; saltmarshes, lowland raised bogs and freshwater wetlands in valleys.
  • Species-rich grasslands on coastal headlands and limestone escarpments.
  • Native woodlands supporting rare butterflies, plants and woodland birds.
  • Reconnecting with nature can have a positive impact on people’s wellbeing.
