Community observations are a key part of watching changes in our environment. This session will teach you tips and tricks to build your rimurimu/seaweed ID and photography skills, and you'll contribute to the Love Rimurimu iNaturalist Project with your observations.

We aim to create a detailed picture of what species live on our coasts and where we can find them. To achieve this, we will show you how to look for, identify, photograph and upload observations in the field and contribute to community knowledge.
Bring your own phone or tablet with the iNaturalist app downloaded and ready to go, drinking water, warm layers and gumboots if you want to get into the rock pools.
Bookings required. Fair weather event- we'll update you on postponements/cancellations and exact location the day prior.
Seaweed Series:
This event is part of a series of events introducing folks to the seaweeds/rimurimu of Wellington. No previous knowledge or experience is necessary to take part in these events, just a bit of seaweed curiosity.
Directly before this event, in the same location, we'll be running a similar session that focuses on general ID without using iNaturalist. Similar material will be covered in both sessions, so please select the event that interests you most!
If you want to leave with one of our beautiful waterproof underwater guides on the day these can be bought for $15 on the day, or download for free on our resources page.
