Rockpool Ramble
Peer beneath the surface of a rockpool and you'll find a whole world waiting to be discovered. A marine coastal expert will guide you around the rockpools, and data of which species are seen will be collected and added to the Shore Search Survey citizen science app. This valuable information feeds into local, regional and national policy.
A pick-up minibus service from the hotel is included in the price of £20 per person and group sizes are no larger than 8.
