Best beach for rockpooling?

Looking to go on holiday with the kids. I remember loving rockpooling and beach combing as a kid so fancy doing a bit of that with them. What are the best beaches for this? UK or abroad, not really fussed.

Ohh also interested!

We went to one on the Gower. Utterly beautiful, lots of rock pools. It was
Bracelet Bay. All the Gower is utterly gorgeous! The further along West you go, the quieter.

I love rock pooling - Cornwall is good, Trevone Bay & Treyarnon were excellent when I was small & when we re-visited last year

Westward ho! It's a lovely little town with a brilliant rocky area, ours loved it there.

Perranporth in Cornwall, one of them is so big you can swim across it underneath a big rock arch.

Croyde is good!

Oxwich bay on the Gower. I expect there are quite a few Gower beaches with fab rockpools but as a child we only went to Oxwich when the tide was out so my Dad could go crabbing.

Mousehole? In Cornwall
Flamborough Head (but there are a million steps down to the beach!)
