Come discover the skills you’d need to survive the wilds of our Forgotten Coast on Avenue B (formerly Culture Cove) with maritime and landlubber experts - from thatching roofs to archery and from animal snares to kayaking. Start your Saturday with the Tate's Hell and Back 5K walk/ run. Enjoy the must-see entertainment of the year, the wildly fun Fishy Fashion Show. Come for the wonderful kids' activities including the ever popular Pirates of the Carrabellean, children's pirate academy.
