Every month, we trawl the nation’s coastline to bring you news of the people, places and exciting goings-on that are worth knowing about

When the darker nights set in, and the clocks have gone back, it’s all too easy to neglect getting out and about in the great outdoors, but we love this time of year. The last of the yellows, oranges

(whatever your budget!)

Who says you have to hike for miles to see something amazing? Not us. Welcome to little walks with jaw-dropping moments… starting with a mountain in the sea. In Somerset.

Take a road trip around Scotland’s ‘misty isle’ for volcanic rock formations, wild swimming at the Fairy Pools and warming drams of cask whisky.

Whether you want to pick up a new skill, hit reset on your health or finally write that novel, these opportunities will help to make 2026 your best year yet…
