Dove here 5/25/2010. Very easy shore entry. Short 75 yard swim to reef on north side of cove. Vis is fair due to surge, a little better out around the point. Interesting caves and topography close to shore all the way around the entire reef. Not very fishy but interesting nonetheless. Some caves where small sharks and turtles can be found. Saw a green frog fish! Great dive for those who want a short walk from the parking with a shower 50 feet from the beach entry/exit!
