I entered on beach between fishing pier and fish cleaning table, there are fishermen on both side so east and west are the only options and too far east puts you near the boat traffic and increased current :( I’ve been told some enter on the ocean side of the bridge buts that’s too much rock climbing for this old diver.

Off the beach are large rocks and metal, watch where you are going! The bottom is littered with lost fishing gear, don’t get hooked!

Lot’s of hermit crabs and assorted fish but this isn’t BHB, the fish are bigger :) RayC/LA
