Beautiful spot. No current, a little surge. Entry over large slippery wet rocks is a bit of a challenge. Saw lots of stars, urchins, anemones, rock fish, abalone and one big wolf eel completely visible (3 to 4 feet tip to tip). Recommend diving at high tide for greater depth and fewer rocks at entry.
