It is managed by the Essex Wildlife Trust.[1] It is part of the Colne Estuary Site of Special Scientific Interest, national nature reserve,[2] Ramsar site,[3] Nature Conservation Review site[4] and Special Protection Area.[5] It is also part of the Essex Estuaries Special Area of Conservation.[6]

The site is shingle surrounding saltmarsh, and Ray Creek flows through it. It is a breeding ground for many birds, and a feeding area for migrants. There are many invertebrates which are on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, and flora include the nationally rare golden samphire and small cord-grass.[1]

There is access to the reserve from the road between St Osyth and Lee Wick Farm. Some areas are liable to flooding at high tides.[1]
