Visitors to the Murlough NNR will be able to experience the work carried out by the Marine Protected Area Management and Monitoring project (MarPAMM) via videos accessible from smart devices via the QR codes and information boards posted along a special walking route on the site managed by the National Trust.
The films (presented by Joe Lindsay from BBC Getaways) detail research carried out on the movement of sand and substrate on the Dundrum and Ballykinler beaches, the importance of conserving salt marsh and sandeel habitat, how to identify grey versus harbour seals, and what coastal bird species (such as Ringed Plover and Scoter) may be found in the area. It also highlights what can be done to protect important habitat features and species found in the NNR for future generations to enjoy.
