A celebration of everything rocky, pebbly and geological at St Cyrus NNR and beyond!
The Scottish Geology Trust, Stories of Stone and NatureScot bring you a display of local rocks, fossils, pebbles and agates to celebrate everything geological at St Cyrus NNR and beyond.
Local Geologists from Stories of Stone and SGT volunteers will be on hand on Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th September, from 11am – 4pm. They will tell you all about the local rocks and guide you through the geological story of how the cliffs formed and how the beach pebbles came to be at St Cyrus.
There will also be fluorescent mineral display showing how ultra violet light can transform the most drab rocks into beautiful and colourful specimens.

There will be childrens activities too! Make a pebble friend, a fossil or a badge!
