Berrow Dunes has long been recognised as an important area for nature conservation. The Local Nature Reserve (LNR) is included within the Berrow Dunes Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).
At least 270 flowering plants have been recorded in this coastal area and the LNR is also home to the rare dune tiger beetle (Cicindela maritima). The Reserve is actively managed by Sedgemoor District Council, Natural England and Somerset Wildlife Trust.
