Coastal Driftings: A Walk from Hest Bank to Bolton le Sands

Friday 2 May 2025
Join local artist Debbie Yare and Morecambe Bay Partnership’s Joseph Earl as we ‘Drift’ through Morecambe Bay’s coastal landscape. Starting from Hest Bank Shore, we’ll walk together along the edge of Morecambe Bay to Bolton le Sands marsh, our path marked with pennants made during 2023’s Bay Lines: Beach of Dreams. During our journey, we will take a closer look at this environment and consider our own relationships to it. Through drawings, written words and discussion, we will explore different ways we can experience, observe, contemplate, and even communicate with the coastal environment and species that live amongst it. The walk is approximately 2km one-way and will take around two hours. Participants are invited to join Debbie & I on the return journey (which will take much less time!) or stay for coffee in Bolton le Sands. Key info: Good mobility & suitable footwear/clothing required for all weathers. No dogs.
