White Point is a piece of coastline that sticks out, with a large park above it, which was home to a Nike Missile base. The road above the cliffs, Paseo Del Mar, is falling into the ocean. The cliffs below have a high content of carbonates. Along the cliffs, silicates and carbonates are found, rarely well crystallized.
