Bull Point

It is at the far end of Lafonia, near Eagle Passage, and forms part of the west shore of the Bay of Harbours.

The area is part of a farm and subject to grazing, though the tip of the point has been fenced off for conservation.

The land is generally low-lying with a varied habitat of maritime heath in the higher areas and rocky and sandy beaches on the coast.

Coastal greens interspersed with permanent and seasonal ponds provide habitat for waders and waterfowl.

[1] Among the 101 species of plants recorded, interesting species are the vulnerable native fern Dusen's moonwort, only known to occur in two other localities in the Falklands, southern dock, and the endemic clubmoss cudweed, lady's slipper, coastal nassauvia and vanilla daisy.

Bull Point is an important site for white-bridled finches
