Do you know that...
Large female edible crabs carry up to 20 million eggs when pregnant. The cushion starfish pushes its stomach out of its body through its mouth to catch food. Blennies can actually change their colour to help them avoid predators.
This week the Wembury Marine Centre, near Plymouth will reopen its doors after a major refurbishment. These fascinating facts along with a whole suite of new displays are set to stun audiences for years to come and help spread the marine conservation message to more people just in time for the summer tourist season.
Since opening in 1994, around 15,000 people have visited the Centre each year enjoying marine themed activities and games whilst learning about the county’s threatened seas at the same time. After more than a decade of heavy use, the Centre’s interpretation panels and aquaria needed rejuvenation. Now the Centre has been totally refitted with exciting displays and interactive games which will help widen people’s awareness of the wildlife of Wembury’s coastline
