Fog at Point Arena Lighthouse peninsula sent us south to Gerstle Cove at Salt Point State Park in Sonoma County. Unfortunately, fog followed us there and we had no visibility.
We did see 11 harbor seals.Back at Saunders Reef, the fog had retreated and we did have decent visibility but no whales were seen.
