The Centre has taken its normal winter-break over the past months but is open again to visitors from Saturday 9th April 2022. Its new season begins with a series of rockpool safaris, providing visitors with a guided introduction to Wembury beach's stunning wildlife.
Each safari is led by members of Devon Wildlife Trust’s expert team of staff and volunteers. People taking part can expect to come face-to-face with some of the rich range of species found locally including Hermit crabs, cushion star fish, blennies, snakelocks anemones, painted topshells, Pipefish and much else besides.
Wembury Marine Centre is run by the charity Devon Wildlife Trust. Its Wembury Marine Awareness and Engagement Officer is Coral Smith. Coral said:
“We are incredibly excited to be opening our doors this Easter and welcoming visitors back to our new and improved Centre, as well as continuing to raise awareness of Devon's stunning underwater world and encouraging everyone to enjoy and protect it!”
