Asilomar State Beach is home to some of the most incredible tidepools on the West Coast -- bring your watercolors and sketchbook down to the water and learn more about the critters that inhabit this rocky environment! Practice quick gesture techniques, record details that can be used for identification, and observe the incredible diversity of adaptations for living between the tides. You will be encouraged to do a little bit of rock scrambling, so wear shoes that can get wet or choose to stay close to shore and observe from the edges.
