I went to a wonderful beach today called Moss Beach. It's just north of Half Moon Bay, which is just south of SF and is near Mavericks where they hold the giant wave surfing contest each year.
Moss Beach is home to the Fitzgerald Marine Reserve. It's a rocky beach that's full of small tidal pools when the tide recedes. I saw small fishes, lots of hermit crabs, and an insane amount of kelp and sea anemone. Some of the rocks were covered entirely with seaweed so it got a bit difficult to navigate, especially when I was trying to get close to the sea lions! I did lose my footing once and slipped right into the freezing Pacific water. It was fairly foggy at the beach, which allowed for some moody pictures. Check them out in my photo album!.
