of the largest expanses of undeveloped coastal habitat in Europe, Blakeney Point
is a great location for wildlife lovers. It is most famous for the large numbers
of Seals which congregate out on the tip of the Point. This three
and a half mile long spit of sand and shingle is a favourite resting spot for
Seal pups. | |  | Check out wildlife on sea and land along the UK's coast. Watch
sensational Basking Sharks and get up close to flora and fauna. | |  | - We're in for a treat at the coast as we explore brilliant
wildlife watching experiences during the summer.
