Low tide walks by Lorna Hill
March 2018
During a trip to Campo Cortez, you will (usually depending
on tides and weather but most likely, you will) have the opportunity to go on
one of our well traveled “low tide walks”. This is where we wait for the tide
to go out (as far as possible), we don our rubber boots and head out onto the
sand flats, looking for all the different types of clams, scallops, and
critters in the sand and pools. It is always a lot of fun and if we’re lucky,
we might find an octopus or two hiding out in a old, no-longer-used pen shell
in the sand, either feeding or closely guarding her eggs. So careful where you
tread and keep your eyes well peeled!
We also enjoy going out to find one of the other bottom
dwelling residents of San Ignacio Lagoon – anyone care to guess which one this
is, peeping out of the hole?
Stay tuned!
