Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at South Casa
South Casa is the alternate entry for Children's Pool. This site has two wonderful channels carved from the beach to the sea. This is not a dive for beginners, and should only be attempted on a calm day.
500 yards South of La Jolla Cove. (See driving directions for La Jolla Cove)

Two kids snorkel out to sea!
Parking, like all of La Jolla, is very limited. Get here early, or on a weekday to avoid the crowds!

It's an easy hike to the beach.
Stay away from the rocks below. There is plenty to explore elsewhere!

South Casa is a great place for snorkeling. As a spearo, I like its proximity to both giant kelp and the marine reserve just to the north. The visibilty, as with most of La Jolla, is usually just poor to fair. When the vis is good, it makes up for the bad days. Last time I was there I saw sargo, opaleye, garibaldi, calico bass, california halibut, a dead seal, smelt, mackerel, barracuda, white sea bass, and about a million senoritas.
