About the event

One of our wildlife team will be plunging for prawns and dunking for dabs, as they take our enormous dipping net into the sea. You will take part in different activities as we make our way through the different habitats of the seashore and head towards the sea to discover what treasures have been found.

Please note that this is a children's event and each family group must have at least one adult attending. Adults do not need to book a ticket.

NWT members and Blue Badge Holders park for free but still need to book a space; please bring your membership card and e-ticket to show on arrival. Non-members will need to pay for parking; please bring your e-ticket to show on arrival.
