Today we are celebrating the 32nd Anniversary of Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary!
Cordell Bank is the centerpiece of the sanctuary, a bank that rises from the soft sediments on the edge of the continental shelf just 22 miles west of Point Reyes. The combination of ocean conditions and topography create a rich and diverse marine community around the bank. This supports all kinds of fish, invertebrates, marine mammals, and incredible seabirds.
