Amazing low tides display sealife like and aquarium Tides can fluctuate as much as 10 feet depending on the phases of the sun and moon. It's a short walk from the deck of the Battery Point Beach House rental to these tide pools along the shore formed by the lowest of these tides. Tide tables are published in the paper. There are tiny fish in this picture although web resolution limitations prevent seeing them. They are also well camouflaged and it's like solving a puzzle to pick them out even looking for them in person. The picturesque Battery Point Lighthouse always dominates the landscape, inviting you to visit while the tide is out. Tours of the museum there are scheduled almost daily during late spring, summer and early fall months. Anytime you can walk over is worth the effort.
