Some of the vertical walls of the Gouliot cave system on the west coast of Sark, Bailiwick of Guernsey, Channel Islands are carpeted with beadlet anemones, Actinia equina. The green anemones are considered by some researchers to be a separate species, Actinia prasina. Sark's Gouliot cave system was designated a RAMSAR site in April 2007.
