About 150 yards from high tide mark at La Rocque Harbour on Jersey\'s south coast		 About 2 inches long. Never seen before. Had to look on internet to find matching picture on your site. Sea slug was sitting on drying sand, a little way away from rock pool. Was still alive so put it under some wet seaweed attached to rock in a little pool close by. The sun was out and it didn't look like it would survive in the open Elke Stolte
