Coasts and Waters
During 2020-21 we are celebrating Scotland’s Coasts and Waters to help inspire people to value and care for them
Coasts and waters are places to feel good, be healthy, be curious, be inspired and be creative. They are places where we can think about and act on bigger picture matters too, such as health and well being; biodiversity; sustainability; climate; and our place in the world. Find out more about their potential for learning and adventure, their value as a resource, and their aesthetic inspiration by:

The John Muir Trust is part of a small partnership of organisations showcasing Scotland's lochs, waterways, islands and coastlines as places to feel good, be healthy, be curious, be inspired and be creative.
