About this site
Morro Bay Coastguard T-Pier sits in Morro Bay on California's central coast, near the entrance to the harbor and within sight of Morro Rock. It's rated a beginner dive, making it a popular spot for those getting used to the area's cooler Pacific water. Divers here have reported California sea lions along with smaller finds like branched dendronotid and opalescent nudibranchs, and striped shore crabs working the pilings and rocky bottom near the pier structure.
