Title:
Exploring the tidal pools at Scituate's Minot Beach
Description:
Travel along the shore at low tide and you may find sea stars; sea urchins; whelks (a type of snail); sea clams, including soft-sided clams and quahogs; and the occasional mussel. Barnacles, periwinkles and limpets tend to stay on the rocks where it's drier, while various types of algae and Irish moss tend to grow in the rockweed zone, a slightly wetter area, said Sara Grady, a watershed ecologist for the Massachusetts Bays Program.

![]() | Mossers relive glory days in Scituate In Scituate, MA., tanned and toned, they lived their summer days by low tide: rising hours before sunrise in order to be in their skiffs and on the water by dawn.
