Man in orange shirt repeatedly approached me while I was trying to clear a small portion of the beach, shouting "what right do you have to tell these people that they cannot use this public beach, as three seals made repeated passes at the beach, and the people moved in closer for photos and to try to pet the seals. A woman was there as well wearing A brown shirt that said friends of the seals or friends of seal beach‐not as antagonistic. Ultimately cleared 1/3 of the beach, wondering if worth the agony‐ perhaps should just wait til sunset. Orange shirt man walked back and forth to prevent the seals from coming ashore and resting thereby stating that people can still be there. Please advise of policy and his entourage better handle this situation without it escalating. I think we should always docent in Pairs.

Water temp in this report and Pryor is approximate. Diver with full gear came between submarine rock and West rock and flushed remaining seals. I talk to him. I videotaped him. I really think it was unintended, and that he was uninformed/ignorant. All the seals could go out to seal rock, they appear to be being bombarded by snorkelers, who are approaching too closely and flushing them as well. I educated him that he had caused a flash, and that he was lucky that the Ranger is not present. He apologized profusely and said that he did not know. There is no sign of any ranger present. although the seals could go out to seal rock, they appear to be being bombarded by snorkelers, who are approaching too closely and flushing them as well.
