Titchwell Marsh, Nature reserve and Special Area of Conservation in Norfolk, England
Titchwell Marsh is a nature reserve and Special Area of Conservation on the North Norfolk coast with diverse habitats throughout. The site features reed beds, salt marshes, freshwater lagoons, and a sandy beach that together support a wide range of wildlife.
The area contains archaeological traces from the Upper Paleolithic period and was shaped by human activity over many centuries. In more recent times, agricultural drainage systems transformed the landscape significantly.
The reserve is managed by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds and attracts visitors who come to watch bird species in their natural surroundings. Over time, it has become a place where locals and travelers enjoy observing wildlife in a working landscape shaped by conservation efforts.
The reserve offers wheelchair-accessible viewing platforms, bird hides, and nature trails suitable for different ability levels. A visitor center with a cafe and shop is available to help plan your visit and make the most of your time there.
The site is home to endangered European water voles, a species that has become scarce across Britain. Active habitat restoration projects work continuously to protect the marshland from the effects of rising sea levels.
