When the skies are clear and it's close to a new moon, what you'll see here will take your breath away. Standing on the coastline looking out to sea, you'll be greeted by an inky darkness and a huge star-filled sky. 

Meanwhile you'll hear the rhythmical sound of waves on the shore, smell salty sea air and feel the breeze against your skin. It's refreshing, rejuvenating and massively up-lifting. 

Although we can't guarantee clear skies, you'll still feel the benefits of embracing the dark and heading outdoors. Night walking is a wonderful mood booster and can help combat those winter blues, expand your horizons and make you feel exhilarated. 

This is because your primary sense - sight - takes a back seat while all your other senses become alive. Weave in a mindful, sensory activity along the way, and your ability to feel awe increases. An emotion now considered more important than happiness. 

But that's not all! You'll learn more about planet earth, stars and planets and discover you're actually looking back in time. You'll also find out about the geology of this coastline too, as the area is steeped in ancient rocks and fossils, akin to the dinosaur coast. 

Further information - PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING
The evening can last anything from 3 - 4 hours depending on the weather. We may change the route at very short notice to enhance the experience. The walk can range in length from 4 - 6 miles and will depend on conditions underfoot and weather. There are hills (some steep), steps (lots of them), lots of mud too. When we reach the shoreline we will head back along the (now shingle and rock) beach. We will cross a shallow beck (stream). 

For your comfort, a good level of fitness will be needed for this activity. 

Please refer to our Terms & Conditions before booking. Please note booking fees are non-refundable.
