Looe wildlife is in the web
A new website for Looe Marine Conservation Group (LMCG) has gone live, with a wealth of content and photos to enable everyone to discover more about Looe’s marine life.
LMCG chair Heather Buttivant said: ‘Whether you’re interested in taking part in our events, finding out more about marine wildlife, planning a visit to the seashore, or simply dipping into
our photo gallery, you’ll find lots of interesting information on our new site.’
The website is part of the Inspiring Seashores project, funded by the East Cornwall Local Action Group.
A marine walking trail leaflet of Looe, a guide to Looe’s wildlife and a children’s activity booklet will also be available shortly.
