Abalone Cove Shoreline Park & Ecological Reserve

Checking out the tide pools at Abalone Cove. Always good to go at low tide, so check the tide schedule before going.

Hiked along the beach to get to the channels to jump off the rocks. Went with an infant walked the upper trails (lots of steeper parts and walked along the road part of the time). If the surf is harsh then it's dangerous to jump, but high tide was nice today.
Tiny tide pools rugged rocks line this family friendly shoreline.
