Beach Heroes is a free, fun, hands-on coastal programme helping young people build confidence in the sea, connect with nature, and learn how to protect our ocean environment.

Based at Sideshore in Exmouth, the programme brings together local organisations, educators, water safety experts and environmental groups to deliver engaging outdoor activities by the sea.

Children will collect a ‘passport’ to be stamped after each mission, as well as collecting beads for their Beach Heroes bracelet.

The Missions:

Habitat Hero – exploring coastal wildlife and habitats with Charlie’s Beach School

Sea Safety Star – learning sea safety and water confidence with the RNLI

Beach Clean Champion – taking action to protect our beaches with Plastic Free Exmouth

Water-Wise Adventurer – safe sea swimming and ocean confidence with Sea Swim Devon

Coastal Connector – building connection with nature and place through a self-led walk with audio guide

Ocean Artist – creativity inspired by the coast through self-led activities and ideas from the Sideshore Hub

Beach Heroes is all about confidence, connection and caring for the coast.

Join up by dropping into the Sideshore Community Hub any day during the school summer holidays (25th July to 4th September) , between 10am and 4pm.
