Description

Protected as part of a marine ecological reserve, the cove's waters teem with marine life, making it a long-standing destination for swimming, snorkeling, and scuba diving. In addition to sea lions, seals routinely haul out on the surrounding rocks and shoreline to sun themselves, keeping coastal wildlife in direct view right from the edge of the cove.
