Beach Explorers - July School Holidays

Head out to Largs Beach with us to learn all about the amazing things we can find right here on our local beaches.

Join local shell expert Peter Hunt and Marine Ecologist Dr Sue Murray-Jones on this guided beach combing session.

We'll explore the tide line and jetty pylons, learning about the things we discover. It may be cold, but rug up because winter is the best time for beach combing!

This is a fun way to learn about the beach environment through a hands-on experience.

Please book a ticket for each attendee.

Please note that children must be accompanied by a guardian and be appropriately supervised by you at all times.

Meeting Spot: Meet in the carpark to the north of the Largs Bay sailing club (on Lady Gowrie Drive, opposite Wigley Street). Please meet 5 minutes before the session starts.We will then wander along the beach towards the Largs Bay Jetty, before returning around 2:30pm.

What to bring:

• Please dress for the weather - sun safe and warm

• Bring your water bottle and snacks

• Bring along a bucket or small bag to hold what you find

• We recommend you wear appropriate footwear and clothing to safely explore the beach environment.

We will postpone the event if severe weather is forecast and will notify you of this via email and sms.

The nearest public toilets are a 5 minute walk away from our meeting spot near the Largs Bay Jetty.

It is good that we all acknowledge we are living on Kaurna Country.
