DESARU BEACHLIFE & TIDEPOOL DISCOVERY
During each low tide, the Desaru Coast becomes alive with a myriad of interesting and secretive creatures. A hidden world often visited by the curious among us but seldom understood. Many interesting creatures that have been patiently waiting out the high tide appear during low tide to feed and interact. During the walk, be amazed the patterns on the beach made by the sand bubbler crabs, moon snails and other crustaceans and mollusks.
During times of very low tides, the rocky formation found along Desaru Coast becomes further exposed revealing many little rock pools. These pockets of pools are home to many interesting and bizarre creatures including limpets, barnacles, sand anemones, rock crabs, bi-valves, brittlestars, Sea worms, gobies, blennies, bulldozer prawns, sea sponges, and many more.
No trip to Desaru can be complete without experiencing the wonders of life between the tides. Join our naturalists on this fun and light educational walk as they unravel the rich biodiversity and the many secret creatures that call Desaru Coast home.
Other creatures that call this home include Limpets, Barnacles, Sand Anemones, Bi-valves, brittle stars, Sea worms, Gobies, Blennies, and Bulldozer prawns. Migratory Shorebirds include several species of terns, plovers, Whimbrels, and resident birds like Collared Kingfishers, Brahminy Kites, White Bellied Sea Eagles, and Little Herons.
