Berkeley Reef

Hazard

Rocks about 0.4 nautical miles west of César Chávez Park, charted as awash at mean lower low water: just under the surface most of the time, and showing only at the lowest tides. The green Berkeley Reef Light 1 (flashing every 2.5 s) stands 120–145 ft southwest of them. Give the light at least 100 ft and never pass east or north of it.
