Barnacles have several adaptations that allow them to thrive on rocky shores. They possess a hard, calcareous shell that protects them from desiccation and physical damage from waves. Additionally, they have a strong adhesive foot that enables them to firmly attach themselves to rocks, preventing them from being swept away by strong currents. Their ability to filter-feed while submerged during high tide also helps them access food in their challenging environment.
