The Beachcomber's Companion, created by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in the USA (WHOI), is an educational guide for the trips to the beach.

The Beachcomber's guide can survive the toughest waves and the long summer days and is said to be almost indestructible thanks to Yupo synthetic paper.

Tracey Crago, a communicator for the Sea Grant Program at WHOI was thrilled with the smooth texture and beautiful printing done on the Yupo stock.

She said: "Yupo offered the exact qualities we'd been looking for.

It's durable, lightweight, waterproof, recyclable and, when printed, the colours looked amazing.

I don't know of any other material that would have given us such great results." From squids to crabs and fungi to lobsters, the Beachcomber's guide is said to be an informative tool to enjoy on summer adventures whilst discovering and learning more about the creatures by the water.

Over 50 guide cards made of durable, waterproof Yupo synthetic paper, feature original illustrations of marine invertebrates, a special animal checklist and facts.

The Beachcomber's Companion is a combination of education and fun with lively illustrations mixed in with scientific facts, such as the phyla and species of different invertebrates.

Colourful, scientifically accurate pictures stand out on every page and the washable guide is packaged in a mesh bag for shell collecting and includes a wax pencil for the animal checklist.
