James Deirmendjian's Dive Log

It's all about WHEN you go in. Went back a couple of days later, and though the bottom was crap, at some points I could see 20+ feet in front of my face in the kelp. Plenty of kelp crabs everywhere, plenty of jack smelt and shiner surf-perch - no big pelagics or big reef fish, though. A fun, if somewhat skeletal and sparse, dive into the kelp.

Just tried to snorkel Deer Creek for the 2nd time. Was disappointed yet again by next to nothing viz. Maybe it's just the winter conditions.
