Our foreshore…. a playground for all ages
Low tide, Tin Can Bay foreshore – a playground for nature enthusiasts
Cooloola Coastcare Association conducted a pilot project, ‘Great Sandy Salty Somethings,’ on the foreshore of Tin Can Bay during the Easter school holidays.
Visitors and locals alike brought the kids along for an exploration of our sandy foreshores, to discover its rich diversity and abundance of native fauna and flora.
Many little marine creatures and plants were discovered, with an emphasis on stewardship, that is, looking after our estuarine systems for future generations.
Visitors marvelled at our wonderful natural foreshores, but took home with them nothing but photographs, greater understanding and appreciation of the Great Sandy Strait Ramsar Wetlands.
This project is proudly funded by BMRG – Caring for our Country, “Keeping the Great Sandy Strait Great”
