About this Event

Join us at the Wild Seas Centre to learn the popular Victorian art of seaweed pressing. We'll head out to collect some seaweed samples and learn more about life on the upper shore before returning to the Wild Seas Centre to have a go at seaweed pressing.

The event will start at 2pm and will last for approximately 1.5 hours. Please aim to arrive 5-10 minutes before the start time.

This event is suitable for families, but all children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

Wellies are recommended. Alternatively, other sturdy footwear for walking along the beach that you don't mind getting a bit wet. Please dress appropriately for the weather. All equipment will be provided.

Access to Kimmeridge Bay is via a toll road which costs £6 per car (charges vary depending on the vehicle). Car parking is included in the toll fee.

BOOKING ESSENTIAL.
