Join Hidden Horizons for a 2hr, family friendly fossil hunt at the stunning Filey Bay.

We’ll meet on the beach by the Filey Boat Club and walk towards the Brigg, stopping to search for evidence of the last Ice Age on the beach and in the cliffs,  collect Jurassic fossils and find exotic pebbles from across Northern Europe.  We do suggest wellies or stout footwear and a bag or bucket to put your finds in. Well behaved dogs are welcome. BOOKING IS ESSENTIAL.
