Torrey Pines Kelp Bed A few meters off the bluffs at the Torrey Pines State
Reserve is this rather small kelp bed which consists of a number of
separated patches. Rocky outcrops
furnish the substrate for these patches of the giant kelp, Macrocystis
pyrifera.
The surf grass, Phyllospadix scouleri, is also found here. Integrity: Their
small size, relative remoteness, and proximity to the Reserve tend to discourage
divers and commercial and recreational fishermen; consequently the patches are
relatively undisturbed. Use: Research,
education July 1975
