In addition, he suggests taking part in a Cross Bay Walk with new Queen's Guide, Michael Wilson.
Rogers also highlights the area's prominence in ITV drama The Bay, currently filming for a third series around Heysham and Morecambe.
"It's hardly surprising that a television series should be set in this area of Lancashire, just south of the Lake District," he writes.
"The headlands along Morecambe Bay provide dramatic seascape views over a dozen islands, and beyond them the Irish Sea."
