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.

If the conditions around the rest of the bay are bad, you might be able to salvage a dive out at Breakwater. This is the place where almost all Open Water classes do their check out dives so it can be busy. If you follow the breakwater out, you can find the usual Monterey fish life along with a few sea lions. This is also a great place for night diving. Tons of octopus out at night.
