One of my favorite things at the beach is a tide pool. It’s like a whole little world in that little isolated pool of saltwater! It’s often easy to spot little fish, sea stars, sea cucumbers, anemones, and urchins. Just remember to find spots to step on that aren’t covered in algae (very slippery), and don’t take the creatures from their home. It is really cool to gently pick up a sea cucumber or urchin, though, and feel for yourself if it is prickly or slimy, soft or rough. Tide pools provide a great way to learn more about God’s creation, and I plan to continue exploring as many as I can!
