Port Isaac Primary School & Play Group have a day out at the hatchery

P3160107

What a day we had, starting with a ferry trip from Rock to Padstow, a quick exploration of the beach, past the fishing boats and harbour and onto the hatchery where they met baby lobsters, crabs, shrimps, giant lobsters and even Larry made an appearance (our 6ft cuddly mascot).

They got up close and personal with one of our mummy lobsters, laden with eggs, a unique sighting of a baby lobster moulting (bursting out of his exo-skeleton) and for lunch, pasties all round.
