Tide pools form in the rocks when the ocean pulls back. You get to see crabs, fish, and plants up close. These spots give couples a cheap way to spend time outside and learn about ocean life together. Wear comfortable shoes that grip the rocks. Check the tide times before you go so you have enough space to explore. A high-waisted bikini bottom works well for this because it stays in place when you climb or crouch down to look in the pools. Bring water to drink and a bag for your things.
