Bempton Cliffs: A Birdwatcher’s Dream
The Bempton Cliffs RSPB Reserve is one of the UK’s most remarkable nature reserves. In fact, this piece of natural beauty draws birdwatchers and photographers nationwide. These 400-foot-high chalk cliffs become home to over half a million seabirds during nesting season, so it can be an unforgettable spectacle.
Between March and October, you can witness gannets soaring overhead with kittiwakes calling from their ledges. The best time to see puffins is from April to July, when their charming expressions make them a firm favourite with visitors. Bempton Cliffs is a must-visit for anyone fascinated by coastal wildlife, as a result of these truly incomparable views.

Coastal Adventures & Countryside Walks
As expected for North Yorkshre, Bempton offers spectacular walking routes that showcase the picturesque landscapes of coastline and countryside. Specifically, the clifftop trails provide breathtaking panoramic views over the North Sea. Whereas the gentle countryside paths lead through rolling farmland and quiet rural landscapes.
A short walk from Bempton, the Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast offers dramatic rock formations, sea caves, and hidden bays. This is perfect for explorers and photographers alike. Bempton’s coastal and countryside scenery is truly awe-inspiring for both hikes and seaside strolls.
Bempton’s Village Charm & Nearby Attractions
Away from the clifftops, Bempton village provides a peaceful retreat with its historic charm and welcoming local spots. The village is home to traditional Yorkshire pubs, so you can enjoy hearty meals and locally brewed ales.
