Meraz Cove sits on the southeastern shore of Caballo Lake — low, rugged shoreline, bay reflections, desert scrub and distant mesas make dynamic compositions. Visit at sunrise or sunset for warm side-light and mirror reflections; clear nights offer excellent Milky Way views. Access via an unnamed spur road; parking is informal. Check Caballo Lake State Park fees, watch for soft sand, summer heat and seasonal water level changes that alter foregrounds.
