Additional Information
English (Translate this text in English): There is good parking at the sides of the road near a gate that blocks off the developing housing community. Several small beaches are handy with just a 1m step down onto their sandy entrances to the ocean.
The site is open to the southwest, but is very protected from the east and north winds. The sand gives way to soft mud and silts quickly off the beach. The nicest diving is in a section of boulders down the middle of the cove. These boulders have kelps, rockweeds, lots of interesting invertebrates and fish in summer. Soft bottom critters are common such as Tube Anemones, crabs, snails and flatfishes.
The head of the cove has freshwater inflow, so after rains the top meter or so will be brownish and mostly fresh.
This is a very easy, fun dive.
