Whale Cove has recently acquired its Wildlife Refuge designation, so the intrusion of humans is now more difficult and development prohibited.

There is very little human activity on the Whale Cove beach now for two reasons: 1) Much of the surrounding land is now owned and controlled by the USFWS and only a limited number of people have official access; 2) The storms in December took out the ladder to the beach, so even those allowed can't get down easily.

I took a look at the north side of Whale Cove at the peak of the "King Tide" to see if there was anything unusual.
