Seaton Tramway: A Bird Hide on Wheels
Take a ride through two beautiful nature reserves, Seaton Marshes and Colyford Common, next to the glorious River Axe estuary, which plays host to an ever-changing selection of birds through the seasons.
Trips give you exclusive access to remote parts of the valley, where you are likely to see between 30 and 50 different species of bird during your two-hour trip.
