Tidepools, formed at low tide when the waters along craggy coasts retreat, teem with living creatures typically invisible to the naked eye. Scuttling hermit crabs, ochre sea stars and purple sea urchins are only some of the creatures and critters left exposed. To explore these pools is called "tidepooling," and it can be a relaxing, family-oriented way to spend a day. While you're out there, peer down on the sea life, but remember the golden rule: look and appreciate, but don't touch.
