PetroStar Cove

★★★★☆ (83)

Tucked between the city pier and PetroStars mooring dock, this cove is the preferred winter training site of Test The Waters Dive Center. General access is at the kayak launch on the right side of the cove. Test The Waters has private access through the PetroStar access ramp on the right side of the cove.

The cove itself is a rounded rock bowl with a strong tidal influence. The city pier on the left of the cove supports a thriving coldwater reef system.
