Date:
A once-a-year opportunity for extraordinary access to elephant seals during pupping and mating season at Ano Nuevo State Park. Avid nature photographers and families get a guided four-mile walk across bluff trails and sand dunes to the viewing area overlooking the beach, packed with hundreds of seals, on a luxurious three-and-a-half-hour schedule. Do not forget the binoculars! Two sessions each day: 8:30am-noon and 1:30-5:00pm. All proceeds benefit the Coastside State Parks Association. $60 fee does not include $10 parking. Get them fast; only 100 visitors will be able to register for each half-day session. To buy tickets and for more information visit Coastside State Parks Association.
