About the event

From starfish to sea snails, blennies to brittle stars, Earnse Bay's rockpools are home to all sorts of weird and wonderful creatures. It's important that there is a record of which species are found at Earnse Bay so that any changes can be picked up early on - which is why we need marine champions!

Marine champions will be trained to take part in a 'shoresearch', where the rockpool creatures are surveyed and recorded. No prior knowledge is needed and all training will be provided.

For ages 16+.
