Sharing the The Water of Fife Snorkelling out 🤿at Seafield Tower today. It’s always great watching people explore the underwater life along our coastline. The coastline at Seafield Tower is a special spot for marine life 🐟 and days like this remind us how important it is to look after our shoreline.
A wee reminder for anyone heading out:
• Be mindful of tides and changing conditions
• Respect the wildlife and the fragile underwater habitats
• Take litter home and help keep our coastline clean
Thanks to everyone who continues to care for Seafield Beach 🌊 and our coastal path. It’s great seeing our coastline enjoyed in such a positive way.

Celebrating World Oceans Day!
Today we’re reminding ourselves how important it is to protect our oceans and that this responsibility begins right here on our own coast. The Firth of Forth is home to incredible marine life, including species now classed as endangered or in serious decline. By learning what lives in our waters and recognising the species at risk, we take a meaningful step toward safeguarding the future of our coastline. Marine Conservation Society
