Spurn Point is currently protected through a combination of natural and man-made measures aimed at preserving its unique coastal ecosystem. Managed by the Spurn Point National Nature Reserve and the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, efforts include habitat restoration, controlled access to sensitive areas, and ongoing monitoring of erosion rates. Additionally, strategic re-nourishment of beaches and the installation of protective barriers help mitigate coastal erosion, while public awareness initiatives promote conservation efforts. These measures collectively aim to safeguard Spurn Point's biodiversity and geological features.
Spurn Point was formed by longshore drift, where material is transported by the sea along a coastline. This process deposited sediment over time, gradually building up the point. The unique shape of Spurn Point is constantly changing due to erosion and accretion caused by the tides and winds in the area.
Spurn Head is approximately 6,000 years old, based on the age of the sand spit and its historical use as a natural defense and navigation point.
