Crescent Bay

We tried to swim out to the rock where the sea lions hang out, but nobody was home. The reef on the way back in was very interesting, with lots of crevices and lots of life. There were several girabaldis guarding their eggs. It was actually afternoon, but using the stobe makes it look like night.
