Marine Awareness Day (20/05/2016)

Well, what a day!

We arrived at Tolcarne beach in Newquay bright and early to set up for a busy day of raising awareness of marine issues ranging from microbeads to animal entanglements.

There were a variety of different activities including hook a can (our take on hook a duck), looking at microbeads under a microscope, talking a look at some creative beach art and taking part in beach cleans.

If this wasn’t enough to keep everyone entertained, the dolphins that decided to give everyone a show sure did, and it was very fitting, as they were a great way to get people interested in the marine environment and what we can do to conserve it.

It was great to see so many people interested in the work we have been doing here on the website, especially the children (who may have actually only been interested in the sweets on offer after the games).

Take a look below at just some of the pictures and videos from the day!
