About this site
Train Wheels is a dive site at Point Loma in San Diego, where a kelp forest meets cliffs. Depths run from 65 to 100 feet (20 to 30 metres), and the site is graded advanced.
The wrecked wheels are the highlight of the dive. Together with Scripps Canyon, Train Wheels is named as a prime spot in San Diego for canyons and walls.
