Tidal Pool with sea hare

The Atlantic Ocean around Tenerife is crystal clear in some areas and so the tidal pools are a wonderful thing to explore. There is an array of fish, starfish and sometimes octopus but the most curious species is the sea hare. They are classed as a nudibranch - a marine sea snail and they feed on sea weeds which are thought to give them their colour. They can also be found around the UK I'm told.
