Join us on a new wildlife trip to the world's only managed colony of Mute Swans!

I visited the Swannery last year and was so captivated that I knew I had to organise this trip for the group – something fresh and truly special, even for those of you who have been on many trips before.

Nestled in a picturesque setting alongside Fleet Lagoon on the stunning Jurassic Coast, Abbotsbury Swannery is widely regarded as one of Dorset's most unforgettable wildlife experiences. April is a magical time to visit: the swannery is at the height of its nesting season, with hundreds of Mute Swans incubating their eggs. You will have the rare privilege of walking among them and their nests remarkably close – an experience that never fails to leave a lasting impression! The daily mass swan feeding takes place at noon and you're very welcome to take part and feed the swans yourself. With up to 600 Mute Swans jostling and flapping for their share, it is an unforgettable spectacle.

The swannery has a rich and fascinating history, having been founded over 600 years ago by Benedictine monks who originally bred the swans for food. Today the swans are fully protected. Film enthusiasts may also recognise the site from its appearance in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

After visiting the swannery, we'll head to the popular seaside resort town of Weymouth for lunch. You'll have free time to explore its picturesque historic harbour, stroll along the beautiful three-mile sandy Weymouth Beach, recognise
