    We start the day by visiting Findhorn Beach & Village where the sea meets serenity! Stroll along the stunning sandy beach, breathe in the fresh Moray Firth air, and keep an eye out for seals or even dolphins offshore. Wander through the charming village, check out the local shops, or grab a coffee with a sea view. If you're up for a quick adventure, dip your toes in the (brisk!) North Sea before heading off.

    Take a short stroll to this incredible sea arch, shaped like a giant fiddle bow, and snap some epic photos of the rugged coastline. Listen to the waves crash against the rocks, keep an eye out for seabirds (and maybe even dolphins), and soak up the wild beauty of the Moray coast. It’s a quick stop, but an unforgettable one!
