Special Notes: This time from the top of the cove the conditions did not look too good, the swell had picked up and there was some foam on the water. The same spearfishing from a few days ago was exiting the water. He said it's not so good. There was also a few young girls as an audience. That made it feel like a beach. I swam to the right, turned around after realizing only ten foot vis in the bestter spots then swam a little ways up the left side after playing near the cobblestones. The left side was definetley more clear overall. Less sand in the water, higher and dense bank of boulders from the start. I'll make sure to check that area out more. Heard it goes to a nice reef and crevices out by point.
