Dungeness has been designated as a National Nature Reserve (NNR), Special Protection Area (SPA) and a Special Area of Conservation (SAC). It is home to 600 species of plants which is a third of all plants found in the UK. The National Nature Reserve stretches across Dungeness to encompass the vast RSPB reserve and is intended to help protect the landscape and its wildlife.
The RSPB's oldest existing nature reserve, was created on old gravel extraction pits where the left over lagoons attract vast numbers of migratory birds from the continent.
See Link and Link for more details on the National Reserve and the RSPB Reserve.
