Event Details

📍 Location: Sea View Yacht Club, Esplanade, Seaview PO34 5HB

🚻 Facilities: On-site toilets available

We’ll be preparing transplants to give them the best chance of thriving once planted.

What you’ll be doing

Carefully attaching bamboo pins to seagrass rhizomes from our nursery. This requires a delicate touch to protect fragile plants.

Outdoor-friendly clothes you don’t mind getting muddy and weather-appropriate gear, layers for cold or sunglasses if we’re lucky with the weather! Please note that this activity will take place in an under-cover but outside area.

What We Provide

All necessary tools and equipment, gloves, antibacterial gel, and expert guidance from our team.

Come Rain or Shine!
