Low Tide Beach Hike at Naples
2020-11-29 14:00 - 17:00 UTC
Steve Forsell will take us onto the private working ranch where we will legally climb over/under a gate to the cow pasture. The path to the beach can be challenging with a slippery shale slope. We bring a rope to hang onto although it seems to not be necessary for some who are surefooted. This hike is about 3 miles. Again, we still need to limit the numbers to 12 participants as an abundance of COVID caution and give priority to those who reply first to janet@gaviotacoastconservancy.org. On all of our hikes, we now require masks and also have you sign a liability waiver. We also ask that you do not bring pets.
