The best launch spots depend on the weather and swell. The easiest being limekiln, the most difficult being Willow Creek. There are a few others, but they're pretty tucked away.

 I'm packing my family up to Big Sur (Pfiefer Big Sur State Park to be exact) and Monterey for a week in late July. Other than down south at San Simeon, what are the prospects for launching a kayak for a fishing trip or two? A book I have recommends Mill Creek Picnic Area just south of Fergusson-Nacimiento Road as a fairly sheltered launch site. But it also notes the launch is within the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. I can handle a fairly short and not too steep portage to a launch site. What other areas should I consider between Big Sur and Monterey?I'm sure I'll take a paddle off Monterey itself. Where and what can I fish for from the beach just north of Fisherman's Wharf?Thanks!Paul L aka PALSan Diego Brendan, Paul is a veteran yaker. I think he's just looking for a couple of safe launches. What do you think his best bet is for that? jas
