Visibility
A grimy 15-20 feet, 10-15 feet in the shallows (low tide)

Freedive over the western small wall. Bloom still ongoing with lots of particles floating about. Slack low tide seemed to make things even worse. Things cleared up a bit at around 30 feet, but not significantly so. Rockfish hanging out, lings on eggs, kelpies saying hello, and tons of jellies in the top 10ft.
