Amazing footage of the swimming scallop!!
I would love to see one swimming out in the open some day. Notice how all of the fish start to gather around it.
Great job Merry!!
My 12yr old son recently got his Jr Open Water Cert in Hawaii and I took him to Catalina on the Sundiver Express. We had a great time and he proved to me that he can now dive in SoCal. Boat dives are better for him I feel because of the whole surf entry thing. Locally here in the South Bay, it...
YIKES!!! :rofl3: Only on a super calm day. Honestly, I don't think he could take the walk up and down the trail....;)

IMHO, I would for sure go with a guide like Shaka Doug. I just got back a week ago and Doug was an unbelievable guide. He know every inch of each site like the back of his hand. Go out with him and take the area in for your self. After one dive with him see if you will remember the dive plan and...
You meet up with Doug and he brings everything in his SCUBA Bus. Then you follow him to the dive site.
Oops just saw that surfinusa555 took care of your question.
Carpoza,
Great diving with you and the rest of your crew. I was "The other guy" in our small group.
I am working on my pictures but I have a bunch that shows everyone. I wiil post a report next week when I get back to SoCal.
You are correct about Doug, he is super guide and knows a ton...
Flying off to Maui next week and I am in need of weighting suggestions for the following:
6 1 205
3mm Suit
Al 80 Tank
Water Temp 77 +/-
I always dive a steel tank with a 8mm suit with 18-20 lbs and aluminum is a bit foreign to me.
Let me know what you guys think on total lead needed...
The marco converter lens is said to fit in the housing on the Oly site. I am waiting for mine to come in to make sure. Either way, I will need this on land too.
Nice Report!!
Yes, entry at the point is for experienced divers only but the exit at the point is for superheros (or possibly another word) especially if there is any type of swell or surge.
I looked at the back side of your strobe to check the available settings and this question is beyond me.
