Causeway Coast & Glens Heritage Trust have invited Joe Breen from the Aquatic Science Unit of Environment & Heritage Service to deliver an evening presentation on the rich marine life of the Antrim Coast & Glens. The talk will be held at 7pm on 21st February in the Londonderry Arms Hotel, Carnlough and will include a spectacular presentation of our underwater life.
Commenting Maxime Sizaret, Natural Heritage Officer for the Causeway Coast & Glens Heritage Trust said “The spectacular coastline of the Antrim Coast and Glens is well known for its dramatic scenery and diverse wildlife making it an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. What is less known is that this superb scenery continues offshore and is home to a stunning display of colourful marine life. This evening talk will offer a unique opportunity to the general public to witness the richness of our sea. The talk will be illustrated by amazing images from Joe who has dived along our coastline for over 10 years”.
The Talk is open to the general public and anyone interested is encouraged to attend. Whilst there is no charge numbers are limited and anyone interested should reserve their place with Deirdre Scullion at Causeway Coast and Glens Heritage Trust on 028 2075 2100 or deirdre@ccght.org. |
