Word for tide pool in spanish.

Question

What is the word for 'tide pool' in Spanish? Is it really 'piscina de marea' or is there an actual word for it?

What I mean by tide pools are the pockets of water left in the sand and around rocks when the tide is going out. There are usually little anemones and other organism left in these little pools.

Good question. - gringojrf, Dec 7, 2012
