Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at LA - Honeymoon Cove
The visibility here averages about ten feet better than the West side of the peninsula. There are numerous pinnacles offshore from Whale Rock at Pt. Vicente. The rocky reefs rise from depths of 80-100 feet+ to within five feet of the surface in places. It's not Farnsworth, but a very nice dive.

I went free diving at this site after trying Christmas Tree Cove. Both are excellent sites if you don't mind an adventurous hike down to the water. A lot of people rate this site and Christmas tree with the best vis around PV, and I can see why, it was at least 15 feet when I went yesterday. The left side of the cove has some pretty interesting walls; even saw some type of ray over here. Depending on where I was near the walls, depth was around 15-20 feet I would guess. Saw more fish this time than when I went to Christmas Tree. Entry was nice and easy over small rocks right close to the trail down. The right side of the cove has some neat rock formations in the shallows near the rocks, just watch the surge if the waves are coming in good. Very neat plant life over on this side, and a good amount of fish. I didn't go into the large kelp forest in the middle of the cove. All in all, great site!
