Tide Pool Heartbeat
What are tide pools and what lives in them?
Where the ocean meets the rocks, something magical happens twice a day. When the tide pulls back, it leaves behind little pools — perfect bathtubs carved into stone, filled with seawater and secrets.
These are tide pools, and they're trickier than they look. Twice a day the ocean rushes in and covers them completely. Twice a day it drains away, leaving everything inside exposed to sun and air and hungry birds. To live here, you need to be tough.
