Further south we came to Shores Acres. |
Looking south at Shore Acres. |
Looking north at Shore Acres. |
We drove down to Simpson Reef because as I said before, it was getting late. |
Bring your binoculars and zoom lens, because they are too small to see otherwise. |
I wish I had a better zoom than the one I have, because this barely does the trick. |
If there was a rock available, there was a seal or sea lion on it. |
The sea lions all had their heads toward the sun. |
Further south we came to another park area. If there was a sign giving the name of the park, I missed it.It had a nice path down to the sea edge. |
View at the end of the path looking north. |
Looking out at the same rocks that we saw from Simpson Reef. |
I could get a better view of the seals and sea lions from this point with my zoom lens. |
I am not sure if they were closer, or if the lighting was better from that point. |
Another view of the coastline as I walked back up the trail to the car. |
The road ends at this point and circles around heading back north up Cape Arago Hwy. |
The lighthouse stands 100 feet above the ocean. |
This lighthouse is owned by area tribes. |
On the way home we stopped at the South Slough National Estuarine Reserve. |
The Estuarine has slide shows on birds and animals and a gift shop. |
It was closed as it was past 5:00 when we arrived. The visitor Center is open from 10:00 to 4:30. |
There is a ten minute trail you can take if you have time. |
7 Devil Road joins back into Beaver Hill Road, which takes you back to Hwy. 101. While on 7 Devil Road, you are up pretty high and get some nice views. |
