Low tide and a potentially nice morning, so off down to the Sabellaria reef in the Solway. Sabellaria or the Honey-comb Worm forms a unique landscape that is home to a wide range of marine life.

| Looking across to Criffel in Scotland. |
 |
| A dropping tide.... |
 |
| Sabellaria reef with Bread-crumb sponges. |
 |
| Clear and warm water.... |
 |
| More Saballaria and Bread-crumb Sponges. |
 |
| Close up of the honey-comb structures of the reef. |
 |
| Dahlia Anemone; decorating itself with shell fragments - for camouflage. |
 |
| Not a great picture, but the Dahlia Anemone had its tentacles out - the wind was blowing at this stage and the sun wasn't out. |
 |
| Spider-crab sp. |
 |
| Sea Scorpion; Corkwing Wrasse and a lovely Great Pipe-fish. |
 |
| Time to depart. |
