Coach outing - Teesmouth

Location: Coach departs from Infirmary Street, off City Square, Leeds

This December takes us back to one of our most productive winter venues, on the east coast, to see seals, divers, grebes, waders, wildfowl and perhaps some hunting owls. Whatever the weather we can always be sure of a warm welcome awaiting us at the Teesmouth Visitor Centre. There is some flat walking but most of the time we'll be bussed around. Julie Mason will also be taking us to see the fantastic new RSPB Saltholme reserve.

Time: Coach departs 8.30am sharp

Price: £13.00
