Parks and Activities South Ayrshire
Wildlife - Dunure Shorefront
With much of Dunure beach being rocky you are more likely
to see a good cross section of shellfish and invertebrates
that have been trapped in rock pools. Invertebrates might
include Dead Man's Fingers which are coral like colonial
animals, their colour varies but usually pale pink or yellowish
white; the Breadcrumb Sponge, likes rocky overhangs and shady
crevices; Common Brittle Star and if you are lucky the Common
Sea Urchin. Shellfish include the shore crab and acorn barnacle.
