About the event

A guided walk on the beautiful sands of Holme beach with views out over the sea and across to Thornham Harbour, scouring the strandline for any signs of marine life! The strandline line can provide us with a wealth of information about species living off our coasts that we do not see on a regular basis. We will particularly be on the lookout for mermaid’s purses as well as any sponges or sea mats. Sturdy footwear recommended. Please meet at the Visitor Centre.
