It's
a
beautiful
cave,
but
if
you
are
going
to
see
sea
lions
check
before
you
make
the
drive.
They
are
not
in
the
cave
year-round.
It's
an
expensive
trip
to
see
an
empty
cave.
That
being
said,
it
is
privately
owned
and
it
costs
money
to
maintain
it.
If
you
have
grown
up
around
the
ocean
and/or
you
live
a
few
hours
away,
I'd
wait
until
the
sea
lions
are
in
the
cave.
If
you
are
not
from
or
near
a
coastal
regions
and
the
ocean
is
a
new
or
a
rare
experience
it's
definitely
worth
it,
sea
lions
or
not.
There's
also
a
look-out
spot
where
you
get
a
clear
shot
of
the
light
house.
It's
definitely
an
experience
worth
investing
in
if
it
new
to
you.
If
you
go
when
the
sea
lions
are
not
in
the
cave,
drive
to
Newport
after.
Across
from
Ripley
Believe
it
or
not
there
is
a
pier
where
you
can
see,
hear,
and
smell
them
close
up.
They're
smelly,
but
worth
it
there's
also,
an
ice
cream/coffee
shop
where
you
can
sit
and
watch
the
sea
lions.
