Lover's Point is the perfect park for divers and non-divers.  The small cove above is great for kids, and the cove just beyond in the background is better suited to divers.  There are restrictions to diving: you can only dive April to September, weekday mornings before 11:30.  Check with a local dive shop for the current restrictions-- they may change from time to time. There are 3 different entry points (at the bottom of each set of stairs) called Lovers 1, Lovers 2, and Lovers 3. Lovers 3 is a bit more advanced, while Lovers 1 and 2 present easier entries/exits

In Monterey, heading West on Del Monte, bear right onto Lighthouse Ave, then bear right onto Foam St.  Make a right onto David Ave, then a left onto Ocean View Blvd.  After you pass the Park on your right, bear right and continue toward the ocean to drop off your gear.

Lovers Point

This is my partner's and my favorite, 'let's grab our gear and go for a dive' spot. We dive here so often, it is perfect. Something new on every dive, and the people on the beach and rec trail are very nice! There hasn't been much mapping done of the cove (we stick to what is known as LP-East), so this is something I want to do. No one seems to know of an old I/O we found out there in about 90 feet of water. Try to find it on 30 degrees out from the normal drop-down point.
