East-facing continuous rocky shore exposed
to moderate wave action. A coastal trail begins near the
church on Washington St. and ends near Driftwood Inn on
Washington St. The site is near the "Giant Staircase,"
a natural rock formation dropping 200 feet
in steps to the ocean. This site shows classic rocky intertidal
zonation patterns with easy access to the rocky shore and
a series of tide pools from high to low intertidal positions. |
