Coastal closures, erosion, and El Nino preparation

Coastal closures, erosion, and El Nino preparation

North Beach at Point Reyes remains closed during salvage operations for a grounded fishing vessel; fuel has been removed, but squid disposal continues and reopening timing is unknown. Pacifica bluff erosion, reduced Stinson Beach parking, hazardous Ocean Beach swimming, and possible Super El Nino impacts reinforce the need to check marine conditions and official access notices.
