Whalers Cove (Point Lobos)

A must-do site for the Monterey Bay area.  The kelp forests here are beautiful, and we regularly get accompaniment from sea lions or harbor seals.  Beautiful and colorful sea anemones and other marine life.  Visibility tends to be quite good for Monterey/Carmel - often over 50 feet.
