Meet at 10.30am at the Harbour Club to commence with an illustrated talk as an introduction to the types of insect and why they are important to the shingle habitat. This will be followed by an exploration of  the vegetated shingle habitat on the beach to see what insects can be found and identified..

Many of these insects will also live in gardens and so we will also discuss how we can help and explore insects in your own garden. Please wear clothes suitable for the weather, sun cream etc.. You may want to bring a packed lunch to eat on the beach.
