About 5 miles South of Fort Bragg on Highway 1, head West on Point Cabrillo Drive located on the South side of the Cabrillio River Bridge
Sandy bottom mostly, with lots of live sand dollars roaming. There is a strong current in center of bay, and the southern side has plant life, abalone, and a large 7-8 ft. anchor with 1ft.long chain links. Calm seas & early arrival offer the best diving.
This is a great site for kayaking or strong swimmers. Interesting bottom topography, and a great dive in good visibility. Plankton bloom has disastrous effect on the site though, as I have been in completely orange soup with 6" viz.
