| Went on 8/18/10. The visibility was fantastic (25+ feet)! There was an old SW swell fading away, and we hit at a low tide, which must have really cleared out the area. Take the trail down from the parking lot, and dive wherever. There was a fishing boat in the middle of the bay, so we stayed clear of that, but the undersea rock formations were beautiful. Saw lots of Senorita, Sargo, Striped surfperch, Gharibaldi, Opaleye, kelpfish, tons of urchins, anemones, and even a few sea slugs. Only two things were wrong. One, there was a LOT of kelp in the kelp forest. Too thick to swim through. So long as you swim around the edges, it's just fine, though. The only other issue was how cold the water was. 60 degrees. But that's seasonal. We had a great time, and will be back soon. |
