Large screens in the visitor centre stream live from the Llyn Brenig osprey nest-cam and perch-cam.

They will enable you to follow all the drama throughout the season, from first arrival, squabbles, interlopers and feeding. Maybe you will even be the first so see this year’s chicks hatch.

With scopes available to use for free from the North Wales Wildlife Trust, you can see the pair nesting from a safe distance from Sailing Club Bay from April to the end of August.
