This viewpoint looks over the expansive freshwater lake of Barton Broad in Norfolk. The lake features gorgeous reed beds and waterlilies that provide home for a number of wonderful bird species including marsh harriers, bitterns, and great crested grebes. Boating enthusiasts are often seen exploring the lake's waters too.

On this stretch of the River Bure you can see two examples of drainage mills, Upton Mill and Oby Drainage Mills. The mills pump water from the dikes out to tidal waterways to keep the land free of water. This is now done by electrical pumps but the windmills remain an iconic feature of the landscape.

The helpers and conservationists give valuable tips on where the groups can best be seen at the moment and they protect these dear animals and discourage some unreasonable tourists from getting too close to the seals. At the end of October I was able to see a few dozen young seal families. Good close-ups were possible with a 5x zoom lens.

In the summer months you. Will find the common seal and pups PLEASE do not get close if you frighten the mums they will abandon the pups the recommended distance is to keep 10+ meters away

The beach is closed to the public from November to end of March all viewing is done from the 2 viewing areas . Wardens are on duty weekends and all week to guide visitors and protect the seals in bad weather the seals come up into the dunes to give birth

When we passed through in early spring, we were amazed at the amount of Mute Swans on the surrounding farmland. On several occasions, groups of swans flew over to land in Upton Dyke and the River Bure. There is a small car park that is free to use.

Best viewing time for the seals (in my opinion) is early December until Christmas. This is because I love the older pups
