Marine Invertebrate Hotels

In addition to animals we frequently see and look for (birds, marine mammals, fish), the harbour hosts many marine animals you may be less familiar with. These form the base of the food chain in the harbour, and many young animals start their lives as plankton and land on a hard surface before growing (like crabs and crayfish).
