Tidepooling!
Tidepooling!


Very low tide happen when the Moon is aligned with the Sun (New/Full moon) and when the wind is blowing the water away. These very low tides only happen a few times per year, and usually at night or during the week. This is a rare daytime weekend chance to see lots of critters that are rarely visible, while walking half a mile into the reef off Half-Moon Bay, which is usually up to 3 meters under the water of the Pacific Ocean. Mussels, sea stars, eels, clams, crabs crabs crabs, and tons of other critters become trapped in the tide pools for a few hours. You name it, you'll see it! We will walk until 5PM when the tide comes back.
