1. Be sure all plastic toys, bottles (and their tiny lids), and
bags go home with you. Fish and birds
might eat that plastic if it goes into the sea.
2. Sea stars (starfish) are beautiful to look at in tide
pools. Leave them there, even if you
really, really want to keep it for its beauty.
It will die. Oh, and it will
stink too.
3. If a sign reads “Dogs Must Be On Leash” please do.
There may be tiny birds or other sea life that would be harmed by a dog
splashing thru the waves or romping across the sand.
4. Even a tiny candy wrapper tossed on the beach will wind up
in the ocean. Fish easily mistake shiny wrappers for food. Wrappers
can poison fish.
5. Stay on marked paths.
Stay off of beach areas when signs ask you to do so. Someone is trying to save a delicate plant or
stop unnatural erosion.
