We wanted to see the ocean and chose Sea Rim. It was interesting to drive through the oil refineries. Our check in by a park volunteer was helpful in choosing a beach spot and she informed us about tides and fishing. The wind pushed High tide a foot higher than expected but that didn’t scare us… too much. Checked weather and winds were going to die down for the next high tide so we stayed…. With the wind less… the MOSQUITOES swarmed and they were tiny!! They found spots to come through on our screens and we were eaten alive !! If you have a rig that has no crevices that the buggers can find a way in… you should be fine… shut your rig up before they come out!!!
