Normally done after shell hunt, given certain amount of time to create a beach sculpture / picture out of as many different materials found on the beach. The art can only be of one thing from the marine environment (whether mystical or not) Once the children have been put into teams they are asked to create a beach sculpture or picture using as many different materials as they can find on the beach. The art can only be of one thing, either fact or fiction from the marine environment. The ranger then judges all the work (fairly!) and a prize is awarded for the best one. Points are allocated for the use of different materials found on the beach, imagination and teamwork. This activity can be altered slightly so that a food chain is created with each team making one of the levels.
