Holme Dunes, Protected nature reserve in Holme next the Sea, United Kingdom.
The reserve spans 230 hectares where the Wash meets the North Sea, containing sandy beaches, saltmarsh, pine stands, and grazing marshes.
Holme Dunes served as a tank firing range during World War II, and in 1998 revealed a Bronze Age timber circle named Seahenge.
The nature reserve maintains international recognition as a Special Protected Area, Special Area of Conservation, and Site of Special Scientific Interest.
Visitors can access the reserve through the main entrance, where the visitor center provides permits, information, and facilities including toilets and a shop.
The reserve hosts numerous migratory birds during seasonal transitions, with three observation hides offering different viewing perspectives of wetland species.
