Rockpool Ramble

Monday 5th 2024
Meet outside Scottish Seabird Centre, The Harbour, North Berwick, EH39 5SS
11am-12.30pm

£10/£7.50 (Under 16)

Discover the amazing wildlife that can be found in the rockpools of North Berwick. Enjoy a brief talk followed by a guided ramble along the nearby rocky shore. This event is perfect for anyone with an interest in marine creatures, wearing wellies, and spending time outdoors! Prepare to be amazed by the variety of life and the different adaptations of the creatures you meet, from scuttling crabs to beautiful anemones and seaweeds.

Ages 5+. Participants under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Friendly, quiet dogs are welcome, but we ask they are kept on a short lead throughout.

Location: Participants will meet a member of the team outside the Scottish Seabird Centre (on the patch of grass in front of the Learning Hub), then head to the rocky shore on East beach, a short walk away from the building.

What will we provide? Trays, buckets and alcohol hand-gel. A full health and safety briefing will take place before heading to the shore and members of the team will be on hand throughout to provide information and help participants find and identify species.

What do you need to bring? Wellies, walking boots or shoes with good grip, clothing appropriate for the weather outside, a drink and any medication you may need.

Accessibility: Unfortunately, this event is not suitable for wheelchair users or pushchairs. Access to the shore involves a short walk (~200m) consisting of footpaths and sandy beach. Once on the shore, surfaces will be uneven and slippery and require extra care when crossing.
