Special Notes: Walked down to the shore with friends and climbed around the south rock wall past some weathered fisherman. We came to a 15' wide channel with strong currents and had to throw our gear over to the other side, jump in and climb out over rocks. it was very sketchy but, fun. Cut my hand and knee. We walked a little further and and came to the wider channel wich was the mouth to sea caves. The currents were too strong and the breaks to large to swim. They would have thrown you into the caves walls or out of the channel all together. I really want to come back here on a neatral or lower high tide during calm conditions and swim through/explore the caves. I believe the strong currents was due to tide changes. Will bring gloves and buddy for sure.
