South Coast Rockpools

Aug 19, 2005 7 Replies

It's full moon this weekend, therefore very low water at about 1700 - 1800 Saturday and Sunday.



The bairns have requested to go rockpooling. But where is best/closest?



I live in Farnham and really don't fancy going all the way to Swanage and beyond.



Can anybody make recommendations closer to home? What about the Sussex coast ?

interesting subject tho, don't forget to post back if/when you get an answer. to bring it back on topic, could we have a discussion on which is the best hammer to smash crabs in said rack pools ?

I hate crabs.

Pity since beyond swanage is truly fantastic. I'm thinking of kimmeridge in particular.

You could visit your local special clinic and ask for their advice (for a friend of course) ;-)

Or you could just shave.

Agreed,

Problem is that Kimmeridge bay will be crawling with people this weekend.

Calshot on the Solent is appealing. No rockpools though...however if children can catch fauna of some kind they will be happy. Low water will probably reveal Ford Capri's, Luftwaffe incendiaries and other interesting industrial archaeology.
