The New Beachcomber's Guide to the Pacific Northwest Paperback – June 25, 2019

Very comprehensive and lots of photos.

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.

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.

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.

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.

This guide lived up to its name and was fairly useful. However, it could have used some more detail, and pictures of just the shells would have been helpful. In general, it is a good beginners book.

I bought this book for a marine biology class, but now I bring it to the beach whenever I go, and it really does help.

Great book that my future marine biologist has been reading and taking notes throughout all summer.

What an amazing reference book for "Beachcombers". Everything you could ever want to know about plants and "creatures' to be found in the pacific Northwest.

Purchased this for our granddaughter and she loves it! She couldn’t put it down.

I love beachcombing with my kids and this book has become an incredible reference!

Lots of useful info but I wish these guide books could be lighter to carry around.

I would recommend this book.
