I found a good online booklet that shows where the MPAs are with satellite images and clearer regulation verbiage.

I get an error message on the link.
I've used the DFG mobile "app" a couple of times lately at Monterey. I walked out on Lover's Point last weekend with my smart phone and got the precise (hopefully) boundary before I dove. -
That dfg booklet has at least one flaw, it shows bird rock at catalina as being half in/half out of the mpa's.

Interesting, I learned something the other day. When looking at the boundaries, many of them are a few hundred feet from a good land mark and you have to wonder why didn't they draw a map that is easy to follow and use these obvious land marks? The answer is they wanted "cute" round GPS coordinates, not sure how that helps us. -
So sad to lose Ghost Harbor...:(:( Many a day spent there layin' in the sand and croaking.
Cheers, Don
