Strands of bull kelp can be seen strewn around the beaches, especially after a storm; some of them are 15 feet long. There is a bulbous head at the upper end where the fronds attach toward the ocean surface, and they taper down to a thin strand at the holdfast end. They are rubbery in feel, and hollow. Often they litter the beach in graceful swirls.
