Though nearby Diver’s Cove has the strongest name association with SCUBA diving and snorkeling, Shaw’s Cove is where anyone in the know goes for underwater exploration. The swim-throughs and crevasses below the surface are second-to-none and the kelp beds are absolutely aglow with fish. Bright orange garibaldi and nocturnal spiny lobster are particularly abundant here, and easily viewable. The beach at Shaw’s Cove is nothing to scoff at. It’s a flat, long bit of sand, with great natural boundaries to the north and south. Those hungry to explore will have no shortage of adventures wandering along the rock shelf at the north end of the beach. The angle of the beach is well protected, too, considering how big it is. Translation: If the waves are big here, you can bet they are big just about everywhere else in town, too. Park along Cliff Drive and follow the stream of wetsuit-wearing divers down the Shaw’s Cove steps; even if you aren’t SCUBA-certified, you’ll be able to see plenty of sea life simply by throwing on a mask and snorkel. If ocean exploration isn’t for you, pack a picnic. With all of the focus here about going underwater, you can sometimes score the beach all to yourself, even in summer.

A beautiful, clean, clear small cove hidden from a lot of people. Best place to snorkel and easy sandy ocean access. Free neighborhood street parking; otherwise, metered parking is also available.

My favorite coastal dive site. Great for snorkeling and free diving. A must for anyone who is comfortable diving. Small private beach with sand or rock entry to the reef. The reef drops off abruptly into maybe 60 feet of water with large kelp forests. Rays, Garibaldi, Octopus, morays and small leopard sharks. Its truly amazing. Every time I go here its a completely different dive.

Unique small beach connected to three other beaches, volunteer docents help in tide pooling. The cliffs and scenery makes you think you are in Terre CInque, Italy.
