About this site
Fish Rock is a dive site off San Clemente Island, one of the more remote of California's Channel Islands, southwest of the Los Angeles area and reachable mainly by boat charter or liveaboard out of San Diego or the mainland coast. The waters here sit within the cold, kelp-rich Southern California Bight, exposed to open ocean swell and current.
