South Stack Cliffs RSPB reserve

About this reserve

Enjoy spectacular views out to sea from Ellin’s Tower. Look to the skies for rare Choughs - crows with red beaks and legs. After a walk through blooming heather, relax in the café and enjoy a taste of Anglesey. ? ? South Stack is a reserve where rolling heathland and farmland meet rugged and rocky sea cliffs. Facing South Stack island and the Irish Sea beyond, the cliffs are a vital breeding ground for Guillemots, Razorbills and Puffins in spring. The rare Chough can be seen swooping along the cliffs all year round. This Anglesey reserve is home to Ellin’s Tower, a bright white Victorian building that looks a little like a castle.
