Just 5 miles from Cardiff and Barry, the tiny island of Flat Holm is a different world with a wealth of history and wildlife. You will be amazed at how much there is to discover.

Flat Holm is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest and Local Nature Reserve. The Project conserves the Island's natural and cultural features, from maritime grassland to Victorian barracks, from seabird colonies to wartime bunkers.
Both the Lesser Black-backed Gull colony and the maritime grassland are considered important for nature conservation. The Island is managed in 2 separate ways for these features. The north side of the Island is managed for the maritime species and the south side is kept as the gull colony with minimal management.
