Dive report for 7/9/26
- Visibility
- A hazy 15 feet, 15-20 feet in the shallows
Easy enough entry via a staircase. A little iffy at the bottom. If there’s structure here, we didn’t find it. But the oyster beds in the shallows held lots of bay pipefish, cockscomb, gunnel, and a variety of shrimp and crabs. We found a little red octopus on the underside of some sugar kelp. And a curious dogfish. A few plain fin midshipmen.
Dive report for 3/22/26
- Visibility
- A chunky 10 feet (outgoing tide)
Went in during a negative 1.4 ft. low slack with accompanying low vis. 50F. A few large pink tritonia nudibranchs. A couple of market squid paused briefly amongst the sea whips, only to disappear before the strobe light could hit them.
