Running through the heart of London; the River Thames has played a central role in the history of the city, and when the tide is low, the capital’s longest archaeological site is revealed!
We will have about 1h 30mins on the foreshore at low tide before the tide starts to come in. We visit the foreshore at various places along the River Thames throughout the year.
The days we can go down onto the foreshore depend on the tide being low. I'm also limited as to when I can take people down to the foreshore.
We will look for historical objects along a stretch of the foreshore. You won't be allowed to scrape or dig, just eyes only.
This is a great activity for children, but have to be accompanied by an adult if under 16 years old.
I'll be holding up a 'Thames Beachcombing' sign when we meet.

We had a guide Robert who was lovely company as well as telling us information on items we may find and the history behind them. You get plenty of time to explore and we had an amazing time. There were people of all ages in our group. There was no rushing at all. We all went at our own pace and had a show and tell on our finds at the end. Will absolutely be booking many more of these in different locations. 5* for fun, history and adventure.
