Boredom. Busted.
Let’s make this a summer to remember.
Plan your next adventure today and bring the long summer days to life.
Tame the tides The rise and fall as you wait for that wave. The sight of white water getting closer. The buzz as you leap up and stay up. Nothing makes you feel free quite like surfing – and many amazing surfing beaches are yours to explore. See our top surf spots
Choose your active adventure Fire arrows where knights used to joust. Leap into the sea on a coasteering tour. Or test your strength in a tug of war. This year, lots of the places we care for are running special Summer of sport events – so get outside and get your heart rate pumping. Plan your Summer of sport
Chill under canvas There’s so much to love about camping. Flinging frisbees while the sun sets. Long chats with friends by the fireside. The sizzle of dinner on the stove. Why not pack a rucksack and plan your taste of the wild life? Perfect places for camping
It’s great outdoors
