here are resident mudskippers- prehistoric-like creatures that are perfectly happy in and out of water. They are amphibious fish but they use their pectoral fins to walk on water. I thought these animals were small but the ones that live in the reserve can grow to 9.5 cm. They skim across the water coming into land on a tree trunk that has fallen into the water. If disturbed they go splashing back into the water making such a noise that you may well think that there is a bigger critter lurking. There is other marine life there as well such as fiddler crabs and blood cockles and there are signs to tell you what lives in the different little pools as you walk around.
