Los Cerritos Channel is the upper end of Alamitos
Bay in Long Beach, California in Los Angeles County. Container was
placed on June 6, 2001 by Gwen. This site is ONLY accessible by kayak, canoe or row boat; nothing motorized AND ONLY AT
HIGH TIDE! This is a wetlands area and is very shallow, even at high
tide. There are so many birds in this quiet area of the city.
You might even see a coyote. Kayaks can be rented near corner of Bayshore
and Ocean Ave.near Leeway Sailing Center and
Woody's eatery. Maps are supplied with the
boats so a visitor to the area can find their way to the wetlands.

Hi
All,
Don't
forget to check your tide calendar when planning this hunt. High tides
change not only in amplitude but also time of day throughout the each day, each
month and thoughout the year. Highest high tides are Spring and Fall (just
as lowest low tides are Spring and Fall). There are 2 high (and 2 low)
tides per day and they go in and out at different time of day depending on the
orientation of the Moon and Sun to the earth. AND each tide per day
is a different amplitude (one high is higher than the other) So... check
the tide calendar before you set out.
