Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Breakwater Cove

Breakwater Cove is another popular dive site. Parking can be limited, so get there early. This is a wonderful place to get a glimpse of sea lions, octopus, and other marine creatures. The best diving is on the outer side of breakwater. Beware of kelp and boats! In Monterey, heading West on Del Monte, bear right onto Lighthouse Ave, then bear right onto Foam St. Make a right onto Cannery Row.

The Breakwater is great site for beginning divers. In fact every Saturday you will find dive instructors out there giving SCUBA classes. Its main attraction is the ease of access. The beach entry is easy and safe and the reef literally creeps right up onto the beach. Don't listen to anyone who badmouths the deli, Valentina and her family are wonderful and the food there is EXCELLENT. They are extremely dog friendly. Just don't ask for change and don't ask about their accents. If 20 people per day asked you about your accent it would piss you off too.
