Morrich More

Morrich More is an extensive area of dune grassland with wetland communities,[1] on the southern shore of the Dornoch Firth, Scotland.

Morrich More lies east of Tain, on the southern shore of the Dornoch Firth, Scotland. Offshore lie extensive areas of intertidal sandflat, including the tidal island of Innis Mhòr and the sand spit Paterson Island (Scottish Gaelic: Innis Bheag) which provide shelter.[2] The area includes the most extensive area (260 hectares (1.0 sq mi)) of salt marsh in the Highlands.[3][4]
