Oare creek and marshes

Oare Creek Nature Reserve, with its saltmarshes, freshwater dykes, reedbeds and open water, is rich in wetland birdlife. We follow sections of the King Charles III National Coast Path and the Saxon Shore Way and turn inland to pass through the former Gunpowder Works. In the afternoon, we explore the other side of the creek, returning through Ham Marshes and passing Oare Windmill.
