Canvey Critters – October Half Term Family Fun

Thursday 30th October, 2025 - 10:00 am - 3:00 pm

Canvey Wick Nature Reserve (meet under the big dragonfly)

What would Hallowe’en be without bugs? There would be no pumpkins without pollinators, no bats without insects for them eat, and no spiders without… well, spiders!

Join us at Canvey Wick this October to celebrate all things creepy-crawly. Explore our fascinating nature reserve, hunt for bugs, make your own spider friend, concoct a potion and whittle a magic wand.

  • Session 1: 10:00-12:00
  • Session 2: 1:00-3:00

Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times. Please book a ticket for each child attending (no need to book for adults or babies under 1).

Please note there are no facilities at Canvey Wick, but toilets are available at Morrison’s which is a two minute drive away. Please bring your own drinks and snacks, and dress for the weather! Sensible shoes or boots are a must (no sandals).

Please book your place and choose your time slot on our TryBooking Event Page.
