The reserve is one of only a handful of locations in the UK where the natterjack toad can be found.[1] In summer, many species of orchids can be seen on the dunes and dune slacks. Other wildlife includes cuckoo, barn owl and six-spot burnet moth.
A large part of the reserve, close to the car park, is wheelchair-friendly.
