Follow the snorkel trail which runs parallel to the beach. The snorkel trail is for beginners and intermediate snorkellers.

What can you see?

Along the approx. 50m long snorkel trail you will see eight information signs telling all about the aquatic life at each particular spot. Each sign is numbered 1-8 and has an arrow pointing in the direction of the next sign. As you continue along your underwater route, your eyes will grow accustomed to noticing what goes on in this living larder for porpoises and seal. The signs will tell you what to look for and how to spot the camouflaged flatfish, pipefish, goby and shorthorn sculpin.
Explore the new artificial breeding nests that have been created along the trail for the small fish to hide in and breed. Look for yourself, and see if any fish have moved in.
