The sea defence work had closed off access to the best beach by Lancing Beach Green. The low spring tide by the Half Brick uncovered Sea Squirt covered rocks but very little of interest. Snakelocks Anemones, Anemonia viridis, were very frequently seen (over 50) and one Squat Lobster, Galathea squamifera, plus a few common species like a damaged Hairy Crab Pilumnus hirtellus,and the sea anemone Sagartia troglodytes. A small flock of less than half a dozen Sanderlings whizzed just over the surface of the sea and shore. Generally, extremely disappointing.
