See if you can find the hidden Hackley bay beach. To the south is the Nature reserve estuary of Ythan river with a good chance of seeing sea lions.
Forvie National Nature Reserve (NNR) is one of our natural treasures. The large areas of bare sand and shifting dunes that dominate the southern end of the reserve have been compared to the Sahara Desert. It’s a place of stark beauty. The reserve covers almost 1,000 hectares of sand dunes and dune heath between the North Sea and the estuary of the River Ythan. It is home to a rich variety of wildlife. Forvie is particularly renowned for its birds. These include a breeding colony of eiders, four species of breeding terns and a wealth of wildfowl and waders. Best seen from the south side of the river, there is a large seal haul-out at the mouth of the Ythan. The dunes hide layers of history, including Forvie Kirk.

Glorious beach walk taking in estuary wildlife, remote dunescapes and an old historic inundated ruined church. The detour to lovely Hackley Bay should not be missed.
