About this site
This vibrant dive spot off California's coast is a haven for colorful gorgonians and marine life. The rocky reef teems with garibaldi, octopus, and nudibranchs. Strong currents bring nutrient-rich waters, supporting dense kelp forests. Depths range from 30 to 80 feet, offering diverse terrain with swim-throughs and overhangs. Visibility varies but often reaches 40 feet. Cold water diving requires proper thermal protection. The site's healthy ecosystem makes it a favorite for underwater photographers.
