Here we are at Rodinesque Point, a lovely set of rock pools that never fail to throw up some curious creatures. Before we plunge in though let's have a look at some of the algae that are growing on the rocks. The larger ones are called Peacock's Tails which you may remember we met in the Blue Lagoon; the ones used in anti-wrinkle cream. The ones that look a bit like satellite dishes on stalks are Mermaid's Wine Glasses and both are considered a delicacy by the pretty little sea slug, Elysia timida, which lives around here so keep your eyes peeled. Incidentally you won't find Rodinesque Point on any map, it's a name I've given the area because of that weird rock formation on the headland which looks as though it has been sculpted by Rodin.
