Otter Cove
★★★★☆
(39)
Easy shore entry. Can get rough if the swell is coming from the wrong direction. Lots of kelp straight out from the beach. Easy navigation out and back, and once in the kelp it is nice to run along the edges.
Lots of kelp fish, including rockfish and surf perch. A few lingcod. Lots of crabs. Some nudibranchs. Possibilities of encounters with larger mammals, like sea lions and seals.
