This state park is loaded with nooks and crannies full of marine life. Weston Beach is the largest and best known of the beaches at Point Lobos.

An area called Weston Beach is the best place to visit tide pools at Point Lobos State Reserve. The tide pools at Point Lobos are only visible at certain times, depending on the season and tide schedule. Some areas only visible during a season or two while others exposed for viewing multiple times a day. The critters most often exposed for viewing include hermit crabs, different species of algae, anemones, and snails. The less frequently visible inhabitants include bat stars, sea urchins, and squishy looking things called “nudibranchs,” which are only visible during seasons of very low tides. If you’re determined to see your very first nudibranch, plan your visit to coincide with the lowest tides of the year.

Hiking, wildflowers and sea life galore are the features of this picturesque area of Carmel. The best spot to check out the tide pools is on Weston Beach, just south and west of the main entrance. If you are lucky you may even spot a sea lion or otter frolicking in the waves.
