Great place to dive! The waves were so small you would have had to measure them in inches! Surprisingly, there were huge schools of leopard sharks in the shallows. I would expect that in the summer in fall, but this was in January. The visibility was also excellent. About 15-20ft! Fish seen include: leopard shark, round stingray, banded guitarfish, kelp bass, opaleye, garabaldi, and California sheephead. There was also a harbor seal hanging out in about 3 ft of water on our entrance from the water. Overall a great dive!

Loved this dive! In the sand there are tons of baby flounder. If you look hard enough you might see a pipefish. Me and my buddy saw 3. Down by the canyon we saw a lot- lobster, rockfish, an octopus, gobies, and more. However the best part of the dive was seeing an enormous halibut. It was about 4 feet long and probably weighed at least 50lbs! It was right on the edge of the canyon. Visibility was great! Around 20 feet or more. However. it is a long swim to get out to the canyon ( where all the life is. )
