Explanation / Answer

The best time to go on a beach walk to look at the marine animals and plants living on the rocks and tidal pools is May 15, 1:30 PM. This is the time where the tide is the lowest and so the rocks and the tidal pools will be exposed which is best tiem to look at the sea animals. If we go at the high tide time, the rocks will be underwater and the tidal pool not be present.
