I grew up in this cove and watched, in one season, the rich, abundant tide pool and sea life be decimated by "the public" when it was opened to everyone. Last time I was there, despite "no fishing" signs posted, I saw men taking their sons out to learn how to fish off the tide pools and shore. It was a marine preserve for a while, after everyone cleaned every living thing out of the cove. When I was young we trapped lobster, along with commercial lobstermen, in the winter, gathered only the large abalone, of which the tide pools were plentiful, had luaus with seafood buried in pits with hot rocks in the sand. We harvested crabs in season, and Japanese people gathered sea urchins and caught fish off the rocks. Rays floated just over the sand offshore, fish teemed around the pillars of kelp. Kelp cutters came by from time to time and took away those great columns of sea vegetables, and off went the fish that hid and fed in them. Now the cove is almost sterile, barren, from rapacious human beings, who are completely unaware of the cycles of life on the shoreline, how long it takes to replenish the numbers of creatures that make their homes in the rocks and offshore. People have made movies and commercials in the cove. That's fine, as long as the seagulls that used to nest in the cliffs, and all the other creatures and birds in the fields, once filled with strawberries, tomatoes, flowers etc. that the Japanese farmers cultivated above the cliffs, are not destroyed. I say, just stay away. For a long time. Let the land and sea recover. Then come and look, and go away again. Stop demanding of the delicate ecosystem in this beautiful place more than it can give.
