And that's where YOU come in! Are you ready to help Old Bill and solve the mystery of Hans Kuff's disappearance?

What is a Treasure Trail?

Before You Set Off

Please Note:

This is a linear route Trail and as such, you will need to catch a bus or enjoy a leisurely walk back to the start point.

No dogs are allowed on the beach from 1st May to 30th September. There are plenty of places to eat and drink at the start of the Trail and a few options at the end.

Part of the Trail is on the coastal path with grassed areas for picnics.
