Blacktoft Sands RSPB reserve is a nature reserve in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England.[1] It is managed by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, which leases the site from Associated British Ports.[2]

The site is on the southern bank of the Ouse, opposite the village of Blacktoft, and is a wetland. Being at the beginning of the Humber estuary, the water is slightly saline.

The reserve's tidal reedbed is the largest in England.[1] It is known for its wetland breeding birds, including marsh harrier, bittern and bearded tit.[1] In 2015, it was reported that some Montagu's harrier were nesting at Blacktoft.[3]
