Park Closure
Diablo East Marina Cove, Scuba Cove, and Walkway Access Are Closed The Diablo East Marina Cove, Scuba Cove, and walkway access are closed because of the presence of excessive docking material, unsafe walkway and dock, and unstable, loose ground. The area will reopen once these hazards have been corrected.
