Great Tidepool Restoration Pacific Grove, California

Working with the City of Pacific Grove Department Public Works, Rana Creek provided dune restoration, trail and boardwalk design, and signage artwork at The Great Tidepool. Beginning in 2013, Rana Creek helped the City to obtain a coastal development permit and began removal of non-native plant species across the 3.5-acre site. Native dune and bluff habitat have been revegetated via on-site seed collection and propagation of select native species.

Public access improvements include a design for an ADA-accessible boardwalk and a decomposed granite footpath with protective cable fencing. Two new interpretive signs help direct visitors through the restored dunes and reduce trampling impacts to native plants while promoting the recovery of the rare and endangered Tidestrom’s lupine. Rana Creek is also providing 5 years of ongoing monitoring and maintenance.
