🌊 Discover the Hidden World of Gwithian’s Rock Pools 🦀
Rock pooling at Gwithian Beach is a magical coastal adventure for all ages! The best time to explore is during low tide, especially around the full and new moons (don’t miss 1st, 16th, and 31st May).
⏰ Top tip: Arrive about 1 hour before low tide and follow the sea as it retreats.
Be prepared: Wear sturdy, non-slip shoes and take your time
