Tune into summer at an RSPB nature reserve

Summer is all about long days, fresh air and time together. Whether you’re after a moment of calm or looking to explore, you’ll find your perfect pace at an RSPB nature reserve.  

Tune into the season’s soundtrack, from the buzz of bees and shimmering dragonflies to swifts slicing through the sky. And when the sun sets, join us for night time walks, bat-spotting and sleepouts under the stars. Our reserves offer space to breathe, reconnect and enjoy the wild, day and night.
