SCMarine Society outing to Fisheries beach Saturday April 26th

SC Marine Society is offering an outing to Fisheries Beach on Saturday April 26th We will have a beach ramble and snorkel at Fisheries Beach on Twofold Bay. If weather and sea conditions are clear, there will be a chance to  snorkel to search for weedy seadragons, but if snorkeling isn’t an option for you or because of sea conditions, Michael McMaster and Alan Scrymgeour will be leading beach surveys. This is a good beach for shells and we will look at the creek species too. Meet near Davidson’s Whaling Station - there will be someone to direct you at the track between 10 and 10:30am. Bring snorkeling gear if you wish to swim, hot drinks and lunch and clothing suited to the weather.

If you are not sure where to go for Fisheries Beach, travelling South from Eden, drive along the Highway past Kiah to the turning for Green Cape, and Edrom. Follow this road until you come to the left turn to Davidson’s Whaling Station. Follow this road to within about 1km of Davidson’s. There is a right turn down towards the beach , but as it is indistinct and not marked, there will be someone waiting to direct you between 10:00and 10:30 am. If there is much rain before the outing, we will choose an alternative location, probably the Seahorse Inn beach. Check the website for updates.
