Seagrass Spotter Session

The Ecology Centre is running a Seagrass spotter session as part of our awareness raising programme to share knowledge with communities in Fife so they can learn about and how to identify seagrass species. This session will use the Seagrass Spotter app developed by Project Seagrass as a method to identify and log sightings of seagrass. Attendees are asked to download this application on their personal mobile devices before the session, so they can log sightings during this event. Attendees will meet at the Beacon Leisure Centre waterfront car park at 09:30am on May 16th, where they will meet with Lyle, the Ecology Centre’s Seagrass Officer, who will lead this event. The group will learn about Restoration Forth and seagrass before accessing the beach. The activity will last roughly 2.5 hours and attendees will walk out across the sands during low tide to inspect the seagrass meadow on Burntisland Sands.
