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. |
