Birds in North Wales Custom Trips - 1 Day

North Wales is a wonderful location for birdwatching with a huge range of species and habitats packed into a small area. A custom birdwatching daytrip is the perfect introduction to enjoying birds in North Wales at any time of year; we know the best locations for each season and can share with you the special birds and mammals each of these habitats has to offer. The variety of landscape within the compact area of North Wales gives us the chance to visit lagoons and estuary, deciduous woodland and coniferous forest, water meadows and salt marshes, coastal cliffs and sandy beaches, mountains and moorland, all in one bird-packed guided birdwatching day.

Not sure where you’d like to start? Perhaps you might like to take a look at our set departure daytrips vising The Best of North Wales, the Best of Anglesey and the Day on the Dee for an idea of where we regularly run our daytrips. We would be happy to run any of these scheduled itineraries on a daytrip just for you on a mutually-agreed date. Or if you have a specific bird, date or destination in mind, just let us know and we will craft an itinerary for you to give you the best possible chance of seeing your target bird. If you have a particular date in mind, a birthday perhaps, then we’re happy to suggest what areas and species will be particularly good at your chosen time of year. Just make your suggestions and leave the rest to us! Of course, we will always bear in mind the weather and tide conditions as well as the latest bird news in case there are any special birds around at the time to look for.

If you are visiting the area, we are happy to make suggestions of place to stay that have been tried and tested by our birdwatching guests, and if you are staying in or around Llandudno or Conwy towns, we’re happy to offer you a door-to-door service on the day. While our set departures begin by meeting at 8am at RSPB Conwy Nature Reserve, on your custom day we have the flexibility to start at a time and location that suits you.

We’ll spend our day visiting several different birdwatching locations before stopping for lunch. We have a great knowledge of the best cafes and tearooms in the area so we can always find a delicious place for lunch. Alternatively, if you want to bring a picnic lunch, we know some pretty special picnic spots too. Our afternoon will be spent visiting a few more birdwatching locations before we return you to our meeting point by 5pm.

As this is your day, we can go at a pace to suit you, either covering as many different places as possible if you’re looking to build a big bird list for the day, or alternatively going at a relaxed place with time to stop and gaze or enjoy a cuppa or two, if you’d rather take things more slowly. You decide!
