I was walking along Eastern Beach and feeling a bit smug about all the sea cucumbers I’d found. Mum had dashed off to go to the loo and I was proud of the cool stuff I had found.

Then I stumbled across this.

Mum LOVES sea squirts. We’ve noticed some at Apollo Bay before, but they were always in the water. This had washed up and would allow mum to get a really close look. I called her and asked her to meet me, but didn’t tell her what I had found.

She was so stoked. I’m used to seeing sea squirts when they are attached to objects, but not washed up like this.

Recently, mum and I went to Eastern Beach. We’d experienced some stormy weather and were keen to see if anything interested had washed up along the beach. We met just as the tide was reaching its lowest point for the day.

It was a great beachcombing session. We explored a lot of the beach. Mum wasn’t wearing waterproof shoes or gumboots so we had to stick to the seaweed areas. This limited us a bit. One thing I didn’t expect though was the sheer amount of sea cucumbers!
