: I can’t sing enough praises about Fitzgerald Reserve in Moss Beach, California! Located just south of San Francisco, this coastal sanctuary boasts rugged cliffs, pristine beaches, century old cypress and eucalyptus forests and a diverse ecosystem that’s home to unique tide pool creatures, seals, and birds. You can picnic and/or take a leisurely hike along the coastal trail, explore the vibrant tide pools, and soak in the awe-inspiring Pacific Ocean views. A perfect spot for both relaxation and learning about the marine life ecosystem! Please note- It’s a protected marine life preserve so absolutely no collecting of shells or any marine life. No dogs permitted. Also, the lower the tide, the better your chances of spotting colourful variety of sea life including sea Urchins, anemone, sponges, hermit crabs, sea stars and more. #california #mossbeach #sfbayarea #bayarea #bayareanature #marinelife #sf #explore #nature #travel #hike #picnic #marinereserve #fitzgeraldmarinereserve
