Bats, birds, moths and minibeasts: countryside family summer activities

Kids minibeasts

Our Countryside Rangers are holding a series of fun events across the summer to help families explore our beautiful coast and countryside.

Find out more about moths and minibeasts, explore Dunbar Castle and the cliffs to learn about the Kittiwakes and their young chicks who call the area home, ramble through rockpools and dip in rivers and even join a nightwalk to see if you can spot some bats!

Activities are aimed at families with children age 5+ however younger siblings may attend for free. Children must be supervised by an adult at all times, therefore spaces must be booked for both adults and children attending.
