Rockpool rambles around Thanet

Rockpool rambles are taking place around Thanet’s coastline for the whole family during the Easter school holidays.

Organised by the Thanet Coast Project, the rambles will be led by Captain Crabby and will take you to explore the rockpools and hunt for sealife. You’ll have the opportunity to learn about the feeding habits of sealife and do some bird watching.

The sessions are taking place on the following dates and time:

Monday 7 April 9am West Bay, Westgate (meeting next to the West Bay Café)

Tuesday 8 April 9am Ramsgate Main Sands (outside Maritime Museum in harbour)

Wednesday 9 April 9am Joss Bay, Broadstairs (meet at the bottom of the slope)

Thursday 10 April 10am Minnis Bay, Birchington (meet next to the tidal pool)

Friday 11 April 10am Margate Main Sands (meet next to the Nayland Shelter)

Naomi Biggs, Thanet Coast Project Officer, said: “The Rockpool Rambles are fun ways to find out all about the unique wildlife that lives along our coastline. Captain Crabby will be leading expeditions all along the Thanet coastline during the Easter school holidays and no doubt we’ll be uncovering a wide range of sealife on our various journeys around the area’s beaches.”

Each session lasts for two hours and under sixteens must be accompanied by an adult.
