Afternoon Seagrass Monitoring in Roebuck Bay (Demco)

Join our seagrass survey as we venture out from Roebuck Bay's Demco Beach on a beautiful afternoon to discover fascinating intertidal creatures and help gather important ecological data.

We will start at the meeting place with a cuppa and snacks (email us if you have any specific dietary requirements), followed by a safety and training induction before commencing the survey across the mudflat.

Please ensure you bring the following:

  • Sun protection: the Kimberley sun packs a punch, please ensure you wear protective clothing such as t shirt/long sleeve shirt, hat and sunscreen.
  • Water bottle: save waste and bring your own bottle, we will provide water to re-fill.
  • Reef Shoes: the mud flats are very sticky! We recommend you wear reef boots to protect your toes from the many intertidal creatures and potential sharp rocks/coral. We will provide boots you can borrow if you do not have your own.
