As nicely as considerable gorse and heather, the vegetation of the uncommon yellow whitlow grass may be visible in April.
The rock formations right here are geologically crucial and have been designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest.
Look on the cliffs among Caswell and Langland to look if you could spot any formations in the rocks.
