Actinia equina
Sea anemone red in color.
Between the rocks in the ocean.
Yes, found it in a rock pool at Melkbosstrand in South Africa. There are a few of them, but we only see them when the tide is very low.
Beautiful little guy! Did you find this in a rock pool? If you did, this is probably the beadlet anemone, Actinia equina :) They are very abundant in Europe and the Med Sea, but have been found as far south as S. Africa!
