Grab a Coastal Explorer Pack, for family fun making a sundial, exploring the rockpools and identifying the marine life that lives amongst our waves. 

Hire a bike (or bring your own) and cycle along the 32 mile (51.4km) Viking Coastal Trail, much of which is along traffic free promenades (also excellent for walking) with stunning sea views. If that's too much break it down into smaller sections
