Running from August 29 to September 14, the festival takes place over three weekends, each with a different theme.
The first one is the Wild Weekend, taking place in the Dunnet and Castletown area of Caithness. This is aimed at all ages with events including survival skills in Dunnet Forest, whale watching at Dunnet Head, and the chance for children to spot animals and the opportunity to learn about archaeology.
Maritime Madness is on the cards for the second weekend of the festival (September 5-7). The north coast of mainland Britain is showcased through experiences such as surfing lessons and a surf competition, Viking storytelling, a seashore safari, and tidal pool art.
The festival comes to a climax with the East Coast Adventure weekend (September 12-14), taking place on the East Sutherland coast. It starts with several geocache (treasure hunting) events and ends with activities such as fossil hunting and gold panning.
Other events include RSPB guided walks, an archaeology training day, and a lantern procession.
