The Coast that Shaped the World

Download the COAST app to experience the stories on the move. You can also listen to some of the stories narrated through the app while visiting the locations where they happened – immersing yourself in the sense of place.

The app is a discovery tool for exploring either by theme, or location across the west coast of Scotland, so when you are out and about, the nearby stories will appear to learn more about your destination. The COAST project ethos is all about visiting respectfully and responsibly – please visit the Scottish Outdoor Access code for guidance.

Be inspired and excite your senses by exploring the MaraMap from the comfort of your home before you go out and roam around the stunning coastlines, islands and water ways. You can get on and off the water at over 300 locations across the west coast! Find out how and where with our Marine Hub and Ferry Terminal tabs and also find out what there is to see and do nearby. Scotland’s west coast is rich with wildlife, beaches, castles, shipwrecks, lighthouses and so much more.
