Devon Wildlife Trust's expert team are running a series of guided rockpool safaris where you'll meet and learn about some of Wembury's most famous inhabitants, from crabs to starfish and everything in between. Please note: no dogs are permitted at any of these events.
This event is open to all ages, but all children must be accompanied by a paying adult.
