Sky Nature is a British pay television channel owned and operated by Sky, a division of Comcast, which launched on 27 May 2020.[2][3]

The channel was supposed to launch on 7 April 2020.[4] However, the launch was delayed to 27 May 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] The launch of the channel was used to help bring High dynamic range (HDR) content to Sky Q.[5]

Sky Nature launched an Irish feed on April 8th, 2021.[6][7] The channel is registered with the broadcasting regulator in Luxembourg[8] however, the Luxembourg regulator will make use of the classification system set by Ireland's BAI Code of Program Standards. The channel is currently only available in standard definition.

Sky Nature broadcasts original Sky content, content from Canadian channel Love Nature,[9] and Sky's collection of David Attenborough programming.[2][10]

On July 1, 2021, Fox closed and Sky Nature moved into its place on channel 124 on Sky.
