Site Notes

West-facing and exposed to direct Pacific swell — only worth diving on small, clean days. Sand entry with rocky reef and kelp once you're past the break. Best at low tide for tidepool exploration; surf can stack quickly with any incoming NW swell. Less protected than nearby La Jolla Cove.
