You will probably want to find some free holiday activities or ones which don't cost too much when you go on holiday as often as us caravanners! We have tried to think of some free and cheap things that we have done when on holiday which maybe you could try too. We like to try and do different things which we wouldn't normally think of doing at home. Here are our ideas:
Visit local museums, historical monuments or houses
Go crabbing
Fly a kite
Go rock-pooling
Visit the local church
Swim in the sea
Try to make a sand sculpture
Visit the RNLI museum
Go on a picnic
Visit a lighthouse or a windmill
Go to a local Farmers Market (although you may end up spending rather more than you wanted to!)
Take a nature walk
Visit an animal sanctuary
Have a tide fight (when you try to stop the sea coming in by digging holes and building walls with stones)
Go on a bike ride
Go to a Maize Maze (great fun)
Organise a campsite football match (or whatever you feel like playing)
Go to the local library
Go beachcombing
Buy an I-Spy Book (remember them?!) - kids love these.
Barrie has made the following suggestion for our Holiday Activities page:
Have you tried Geocaching? Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices. The basic idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then share your experiences online. Geocaching is enjoyed by people from all age groups, with a strong sense of community and support for the environment.
