April 18 @ 9:00 am – 12:00 pm
Today is a great day to get out to the beach, explore the tidepools, and discover all the amazing local marine critters.
It’s an extra-low tide + it’s during daylight hours. (PS: The tide will hold this pattern over the next few days.)
Head to the shore in the late morning / early afternoon for an exciting exploration at low tide. Willow Point Reef is a great spot during this time. 🦀
The tide should be very low from 9am to 1pm, with the lowest tide at around noon.
Look for anemones, sea cucumbers, starfish, chitons, crabs, eels and so much more!
It’s a great chance for everyone from curious kids to nature-loving adults to enjoy a lively, educational day right by the shore. 🌞
Tips: For tidepool adventures, aim for low tides. The lowest tides usually occur around the full moon and offer opportunities to observe the most species.
However, any low tide is a good time to visit our local tide pools and explore marine life. 🐚
Safety: Be aware of your surroundings, set an alarm to be back before the tide turns. And Remember, Never turn your back to the tide!
