Self-Led Pond Dipping at RSPB Rye Meads (1)

5th April - 21st April 2025

During the Easter holidays, take part in pond dipping at RSPB Rye Meads! Discover the creatures lurking in the hidden depths of the waters - from the tiny water flea to the mighty dragonfly nymph, the ponds of Rye Meads are full of a variety of amazing animals! Available from 10am-4pm, Wednesday - Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday (21st April). No need to book, just turn up on the day! All pond dipping equipment is provided for £4.50 per kit, and your pond dipping session will last approximately 25 minutes. Please do not bring your own nets as you won't be able to use them in our pond. This is a self-led activity. FAQs Is there a minimum age requirement for the event? There is no minimum age requirement, but all children must be accompanied by an adult. What parking and facilities are available at the reserve? Parking is available at the Visitor Centre, free to members of the RSPB or blue badge holders, and £5 per car for non-members of the RSPB. (Please see our website for parking charges for larger vehicles or motorbikes). Cycle racks are available at the Visitor Centre as well as toilets and baby changing facilities. Do you have a cafe on site? We don't have a full cafe with hot food and sandwiches but do have light snacks such as crisps, sweet treats, hot and cold drinks and ice cream. Can I sign up for RSPB membership? If you would like to find out more about RSPB membership on the day, please speak to one of our team.
