Camber Sands

Camber Sands is a beach at the village of Camber (near Rye), East Sussex, England. It is the only sand dune system in East Sussex and is located east of the estuary of the River Rother at Rye Bay all the way to the East Sussex/Kent border.

 

A large section of the western end of the dunes lie within the Camber Sands and Rye Saltings Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), while the rest is designated a Site of Nature Conservation Importance. The dunes are accreting (gradually getting bigger). The dunes are managed to prevent problems with wind-blown sand.
