Dive report for 7/7/26
- Visibility
- A chunky 10-15 feet (high tide)
Entered SE of the usual barge destination. Salt-and-pepper sea cucumbers, leather stars everywhere and more than a few vermilion stars. Rockfish in the shadows of a certain wreck, a couple of Great Sculpins.
Headed NW in search of giant nudibranchs. Small tube-dwelling anemones punctuated the expanse of salt-and-peppers. They proved to be just the right size for young giant nudibranchs to hone their deadly craft.
