Crymlyn Burrows SSSI

The final part: after visiting Pant-Y-Sais NNR, Tom went to Crymyln Burrows SSSI, a reserve of mixed woodland, mature dune, unstable dunes, beach, salt marsh and estuary, a real mixed bag. Sadly, the cloud had rolled in, so there were less insects active, but a fantastic assortment of flora.

Towards Mumbles, and salt marsh (sea lavender).

Dune pansy.
