Channel Islands Dive Guidebook

[sdavo]

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good Channel Islands dive guidebook? I am interested in the Northern Channels Islands, especially Santa Cruz.

I have a boat and have been diving up and down the coast from Santa Barbara. I am ready to start exploring the islands, starting with the North side of Santa Cruz.

The Cruising Guide to Central and Southern California: Golden Gate to Ensenada, Mexico, Including the Offshore Islands

I think I bought a copy of that book at some point. I'll have to figure out what happened to it. Does it have dive site descriptions?

I found my copy of "The Cruising Guide to Central and Southern California." It's a good boating guide book, but I don't see any dive site descriptions in it.

Any recommendations for a good Channel Islands dive guidebook?

I would recommend Diving Offshore California by Darren and Stacey Douglass, which covers the Northern and Southern Channel Islands, including Catalina and the Cortes Bank . . .

Thanks for the recommendation - I just ordered a copy!
