Marine Week 2026!
Running from 25th July until 9th August (to ensure everyone in the country gets to explore at the best low tides) National Marine Week 2026 is starting shortly! In order to celebrate the best our fabulous North West Coast has to offer there are a number of exciting events for you to get involved with. Take the family along to SeaFest with Cumbria Wildlife Trust, go on a Saltmarsh Safari with the Flyde Ranger Service. If getting hands on is more your speed, why not sign up to help survey a Prehistoric forest with the team at Coasts in Mind. With such a wide variety of activities on offer from exploring our coastal and marine nature, to prehistoric woodlands now found on our coastline, from seals to saltmarshes, there’s something for everyone to enjoy learning more about this summer. If you want to keep up with everything going on during Marine Week in the North West please visit our dedicated Marine Week webpage here. National Marine Week is a Wildlife Trusts initiative and you can find out more information and see more events across the country on their website where you can also make a pledge for the sea.
