Join us to discover the amazing wildlife hidden on the rocky shore, just below the Scottish Seabird Centre.
Discover the amazing wildlife that can be found in the rockpools of North Berwick. Enjoy a brief introduction from our friendly team followed by a guided ramble along the nearby rocky shore.
This event is perfect for anyone with an interest in marine creatures 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.
This event is suitable for ages 5+ and costs £5 per person (£4.50 for Scottish Seabird Centre members). This money is gratefully received and will go towards supporting our education and conservation work around Scotland.
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 patio in front of the Centre), 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.
Keeping everyone safe
Our group leader is a trained first aider and will be carrying a first aid kit and mobile phone. A copy of the event's risk assessment will be available to view on the day.
What if my event is cancelled?
If this event is cancelled due to poor weather conditions or other circumstances, we will get in touch with you the day before to let you know. You will be refunded.
