About the event

Join us as we explore the shoreline in search of shark and ray egg cases – better known as mermaid's purses. Together, we’ll learn how to spot them, identify the species they belong to and uncover which sharks and rays can be found off the Norfolk Coast.

Please note that this is a children's event and each family group must have at least one adult attending. There is no charge for accompanying adults and they do not need to book a ticket.
