Join us to explore the shores around Half Moon Bay in Heysham and learn about how our rocks and landscapes were formed.
About this Event

Meeting on the beach at Half Moon Bay, Heysham we will head out a little into Morecambe Bay and around to a smaller adjoining beach. This exciting short walk will transport you back in time to see how the last ice age formed the rocks before you. Geologist Trevor Lund will transport you back in time with some amazing facts about the landscapes composition and we will take a closer look at the sand beneath your feet. This event is for those aged 7 and upwards.


Please come prepared with suitable clothing for the weather conditions with walking boots or good wellies. Sandals or crocs are not recommended. We will be away from HMB for the duration of the event so please bring along refreshments if required.



  • Please note these areas are very slippery and supervision of children is required at all times especially whilst near the rocks. We will start with a safety talk on HMB so please arrive promptly, so we have lots of time to explore.
