Mamma Maria: I own the earlier edition and bought this to have the same copy as my students. It is well detailed, accurate and includes great photographs, habitat information, and best beach behavior advice.

Fess: I've tried several guides and this one is by far the most useful and informative one out there that can actually be taken into the intertidal. I love it.

Gregory W. Smith: I have been a docent for US Fish and Wildlife and the BLM. Helping and educating folks learn about tide pools and the creatures and plants that are part of them. After using many guide books, I have to say that this has to be the best one out there.
Beautiful photos and great descriptions that are concise and well organized. I am very pleased to add this to my field guide collection. If you want one guide to know coastal plants and water animals, this is the one.

Amanda Z.: This updated guide is perfect. Great descriptions and pictures. Lots of information and many of the names have been updated to reflect the changes in taxonomy. I love that some pictures are what you'll actually SEE in the intertidal and not just want a pristine specimen looks like. Very helpful for identification. Great book, also a great gift for the sea lover.
