How to get involved? Can U Find Salthill’s Rock?
Join Galway Atlantaquaria on Saturday, the 20th of September at 10 am at Ladies, Beach, Salthill for a gentle Clean Coasts #2MinuteBeachClean and a fun Stone of Salthill – Fossil Walk along the shore.
This experience is ideal for all ages, and it will include a fun activity where people are invited to select their favourite rock/fossil and get it featured across our socials. We can also include a small Explore Your Shore! Experience beside ‘Drowned Rock’.
As Ladies Beach is relatively free from Marine Litter, this is a great opportunity to learn about the Clean Coasts two-minute beach clean campaign and showcase how a lot of people doing a little thing can become a net positive for our ocean.
