Wildlife Watch: Our Sussex Coastline

Discover why our coastline is such an important habitat for helping to slow the effects of climate change and what you can do to help. A Wildlife Watch session on life below the waves along the Sussex coast.

What to expect:

• Tuesday 27 October 2026, 1pm to 3pm
• Learn about the microscopic organisms that provide half the oxygen we breathe, and the kelp forests that are a nursery ground for marine life
• In the classroom, use VR headsets to explore the underwater world and look at marine life under microscopes
• Bring wellies for exploring the saltmarsh and dress for the weather; part or all of the session is outside
• Meet at the bottom of the slope outside Rye Harbour Discovery Centre
• Booking essential, via Eventbrite
• Shop, cafe and toilets in the Discovery Centre; the saltmarsh path is uneven
