The World Stone Skimming Championships is an annual event held in Scotland, where participants compete to see who can skim a flat stone the farthest across water. The competition typically takes place on the shores of Loch Fyne, attracting both locals and visitors. Contestants are judged based on the distance their stones travel and the number of skips they achieve. Participants often use specially selected stones, and the event includes various categories, such as junior and adult divisions. The championships celebrate the skill and technique involved in stone skimming, making it a fun and engaging experience for all ages.
