Have an unforgettable experience and see one of nature's most beautiful spectacles of up to 2,000 whooper swans on the mere.
Visit Martin Mere after hours at one of the floodlit swan evenings and get a fantastic view of wild swans and ducks from the Discovery Hide. You'll be joined by a warden who will provide a fascinating live commentary about the whooper swans and the migratory journey that they make to the reserve every year as they spend winter in the UK.
See the swans shine bright by floodlight on the water. It's an event not to be missed.
