NoExtra info
A spotting scope makes a huge difference, as you are just standing in one place and looking out into the ocean. Best time is by sun rise and first hours of the day. Late afternoon is not a good time to go, as you are always in backlight looking towards the sun. Rare and vagrant ocean birds can be seen, particularly after storms.
