==Location== The hard [[chalk]] cliffs at [[Bempton]] rise are relatively resistant to [[erosion]] and offer many sheltered headlands and crevices for nesting birds. The cliffs run about {{convert|10|km|mi|0|order=flip}} from [[Flamborough Head]] north towards [[Filey]] and are over {{convert|100|m|ft|order=flip}} high at points. The cliffs at Bempton are some of the highest chalk cliffs in England, Beachy Head in East Sussex being the highest at {{convert|530|ft}}.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Rushby|first1=Kevin|title=Flamborough Head, East Yorkshire: towering cliffs, by foot or by boat|url=https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2013/jul/12/flamborough-head-yorkshire-walking|accessdate=6 April 2017|work=The Guardian|date=12 July 2013}}</ref> The area administered by the RSPB also includes [[Buckton, East Riding of Yorkshire|Buckton]] Cliffs.<ref>{{cite web |title=Find Walks Bridlington Area |url=http://walkingtheriding.eastriding.gov.uk/find-walks/bridlington-area/?entryid30=36462 |website=Walking the Riding |accessdate=3 December 2019}}</ref> There are good walkways along the top of the cliffs and several well fenced and protected observation points.
