Dock wisdom

·

Port San Luis is the warmest harbor launch on the Central Coast -- water temperature averages 5 degrees warmer than Morro Bay.

·

Pirates Cove sea cave kayaks are calmest in the morning before the afternoon onshore breeze builds.

·

Halibut fishing peaks in April through June when fish move into the shallow sandy areas of the bay.

·

The SUP lessons at Avila benefit from the natural windbreak of Point San Luis -- rarely cancelled for conditions.
