Dennis,
There are plenty of dive club in the Laguna area (SOCDC, Laguna sea dwellers, and others).
Most are meeting on Sat morning, or Sundays morning every week. You can ALWAYS find a buddy.
considering the number of divers in this area, you can't really do solo diving unless you really want to.
During the week-end, there are divers in the water all the time at all the coves in Laguna. And if there aren't .. .then don't go !
During the week, many are also meeting for evening and night dives. It is very common. I think you can almost always show up, look for a divers and ask to join. Of course that may not be as good as a agreed dive buddy, but still better than solo diving. Plus, some guys have been diving >30 years in there and they know all the good place to look.
This Sat, in addition to all the clubs going in the water, there is another event with plenty of divers (see the SoCal forum).
And just post, email people in this board to get buddy in this area in case you really want to get wet and find out you are alone.
