Hiking
This tidal pond is trapped between the land and Hurst Spit, with marshes to the north and south. If you're keen on spotting sea and shoreline birds, this is a fantastic place to do it. All sorts of feathery characters tiptoe around here, using their long beaks to extract tasty morsels from the mud and shallows.

Hiking
Sturt Pond itself is tidal, and the reserve also includes Dane Stream, reedbeds, lagoons and saltmarsh. These habitats attract many birds, and there is also an area of grassland which is grazed by New Forest ponies.
