Devon Wildlife Trust's Marine Engagement team are kicking off monthly sea watches at Wembury Point! Join us on the first Saturday of each month, to learn all about Devon's marine megafauna and search the seas from Wembury Point.
We'll be joined by enthusiastic local volunteers and sea watch expert, Paul Burley, who will show us how to search for cetaceans and sea birds from the land, as well as learning about their behaviour and fascinating lives at sea.
We'll be collecting vital data while we're at it, aligning with Seaquest Southwest, a citizen science project run by Cornwall Wildlife Trust, which aims to engage people with the marine environment; to collect data on marine wildlife; and to better understand and conserve marine wildlife.
This event is free of charge, although donations to Devon Wildlife Trust are gratefully accepted.
Select dates from the list below for full details on Eventbrite and to register attendance. Events are weather dependent so please check your emails close to the day in case of cancellation.
Parking spaces are very limited at Wembury Point National Trust car park. You can reach Wembury Point via a 30 minute walk along the South West Coast Path from Wembury Beach National Trust car park (Church Road, PL9 0HP).
