This is a nice spot that offers an opportunity to see some sea life, and additional experiences are offered, including dolphin and sea lion encounters and Sea Trek and Helmet Dive, the opportunity to explore the marine environment while breathing underwater with the use of the helmets. It’s also next to Coki Point Beach which allows you to enjoy two activities in one day. Lots of good local food at this location too.
