Leo Carrillo is looking fair today, but you'll want to be mindful of those notorious currents, especially with the tide falling fast. The good news is we've had no recent rainfall, so runoff isn't an issue, and the estimated visibility today is 15-20 ft. However, with the tide dropping quickly and only 0.7 hours to slack, navigating the rocky entries and exploring tidepools might be a bit more challenging, compounded by a 13.0 mph WSW cross-shore wind.
