Dove La Jolla Cove with Josh on saturday morning. Got there just as the sun was coming up and set up on the lawn at the top of the stairs. Weather and surface conditions could not have been better. We and a few other divers had the place all to ourselves until mid morning when the sunbathers started to arrive.
First dive was straight out from the cove about 100 to 150 yards. Second and third dives were to the right and left of the cove following the contour of the shoreline. I was somewhat surprised that this is a relatively shallow area with limited bottom topography (not quite what I expected). Alot of heavy surge and very little depth combined to made navigating along the bottom a real challenge. Of the three dives, our maximum depth was only 40'.
Ran across the usual cast of characters; lobsters, a small sand colored ray and an occasional seal.
Have tentitive plans to dive La Jolla Shores early in June. If anyone is interested, drop me a PM.
Thanks to Josh. Beth and I had a great time.
Regards, Bill
