Fieldwork in Millport - A British marine biologist’s haven!

Rock pooling, tide tracking and sunset strolls! A Scottish adventure for a budding marine biologist. Come read about my time at the picturesque sea town of Millport, where I was fortunate to study local marine wildlife, from sea stars to sea birds, and sea otters to plankton. Each day brought something new—shifting tides revealing hidden worlds in rock pools, field notes filling up with observations, and moments of quiet awe along the shoreline. It was a chance to learn, explore, and reconnect with the coast in a way that only fieldwork can offer.
