Abbotsbury Swannery
Abbotsbury Swannery is the only place in the world where you are able to walk through the heart of a colony of nesting Mute Swans. On average we have around 600 birds on site, but this number varies slightly throughout the year. Mass feeding of the swans takes place at noon and 4pm every day.
