We spent a gloriously sunny Saturday afternoon on Southsea beach, messing about with hydrophones with the help of our new friends. Hear a taster of what the hydrophones picked up on our soundcloud stream  
Ethereal, otherworldly sounds were quite a draw as beach goers (young and not so young) stopped to listen for a moment. 
And then a queue formed... Apparently underwater sounds like popping candy, pebble polishing and zoning in to the rhythm of the water. 
The hydrophones were picking up natural and mechanical sounds from one of the busiest shipping lanes.
Then the hovercraft rocked up...
Order restored on the beach and ice cream all round (mine's a mint choc chip!)
And the secret sub-aquatic sounds continue - an awesome experience.
