On-Beach Marine Conservation
21 February @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Brighton Beach BioBlitz – EarthCare St Kilda
Join us for a community BioBlitz at Brighton Beach! We’ll be spending time recording the plants, animals, and other wildlife we find along this stretch of coastline — and every observation counts.
Brighton Beach is one of the areas we’re committed to caring for long-term, so building a clear picture of what lives here is essential. These records will help us track changes over time and measure the real impact of our conservation work on the local environment.
No experience needed — just curiosity! Come along, explore the beach with us, and help us tell the story of Brighton Beach’s wildlife.
