In tide pools and under rocks, there are fishlets, sea anemones, blotched nerites, top-snails, crowned turban shells, sea hares, and crabs, in addition to slowly-moving hermit crabs.

In the spring,lush green sea lettuce and algae cover wave-cut platforms, looking like natural carpets. In the summer, algae are not that many, making it easier to walk. Magang Intertidal Zone, filled with numerous little living creatures, is ideal for observers of nature. Each tidal pool seems to represent a unique ecological world - perfect for young families with children.
