Rockpools

What are they?

Whether it is a skulking crab, a delicate starfish or the tentacle blooms of a sea anemone, there is always something to find just below the surface: There is a microcosm of vibrant life that is played out between the tides. One way to discover more about the wildlife that exists along our coast is to spend time rockpooling – whether young or old, exploring beaches and bays can be a truly magical experience. 

Where can I see them?

Heysham Harbour, Half Moon Bay.
