Tman, if you are looking for a great place for snorkeling with your kid where he can see lots of cool stuff, try the bay north of Big Rock in Bird Rock. There is a fairly easy rock access near the point on the north side.
That was my "secret" place as a kid. In the day you could get a limit of abs in 10 minutes. These days the abalone are gone but there are still plenty of fish, crabs and other intersting things. Go at low tide when it is shallow. The water there gets dirty with any kind of surf however. Bob |

Know the area very well...last ab I got was just S of there back in the day, buried under a ledge.
Low tide is best, but I'm still worried about the undercurrent, you know what I mean. Good place at low tide to scavenge, but not for a beginner youth. Conditions would have to be ideal, otherwise, scrape, scrape, scrape... BTW, that is the best spot to find  buoys too, after the swells...
