This is a great dive location for several reasons. The vis can be better than other shore dive areas, there is lots of depth along the wall if desired and the wall in interesting to see. There are two dive locations. The 1st and most popular is to enter beside the beach area. There is no current in this cove to speak of so it makes for a great entry area. The 2nd entry area is at the south-west end of the park. Divers can then drift to the beach area. The map below shows the drift start and end and shows the location of a small wreck at 80 ft. Note that in 2023 the park attendants were not allowing people to do the second dive plan.

Both areas are indicated on the satellite image at the top of this page.

You can unload your gear near the diver area but then must move your car to the “P” parking area. Getting there early will improve your chances of getting a spot
