It is internationally known as the home of the Findhorn Foundation - a self-sufficient eco-friendly community based on spiritual values founded in 1962.
The nearby Findhorn Bay, Burghead Bay and Culbin Forest are great places for wildlife, walking and watersports.
Bi-annually a cultural explosion takes place in the area in the form of Findhorn Bay Arts Festival, which showcases local and international visual, musical, and theatrical artists. The community of Findhorn and the wider Forres area have been awarded a Creative Place Award in 2015 in recognition for their involvement in this, and other creative projects.
