When you go Rock Pooling there are some fundamental rules you have to remember!

• Keep a very close eye on the tide, it goes out fast and comes back fast do not get caught and please be careful!
• Have respect for the beach and do not kill anything!
• If you pick up a rock to see what is under it, please put it back on the same spot where you found it.
• Never remove anything belonging to the beach from the beach, including rocks and sand, it is illegal!
• Remove all you rubbish from the beach.
• Step carefully, you never know what you might step on.
• Wear shoes, you do not want to get hurt.
• If you catch something on a bottle to take a photo of, please let it go back to the wild as soon as you have done, do not stress the little creature to much!
• Record all our finds, you might be the first person to find this special little creature, you never know.
