Saturday 4-30-16 went at 10 am from Service Club. (ish) 79-81 degrees and varying visibility from about 4 to 9 feet. Stayed in around 79 mins. Started out flat. Wind kicked up a little at end of dive and my new inflatable dive flag was telling me all about it. Found lots of sand tiger teeth today? Not complaining but what's up with that.

Dove Alhambra this afternoon. Hit the water shortly after noon. Swam about 1/2 mile out then went straight west whole dive. Viz was 6-8 at the beginning. 4-5 in places mid-way through dive, and ended with 8-10 out in 28 ft of water. Was gonna yak dive, but the wave action found me kickin' the fins instead. Found a pretty nice 4.5", a half of a 4.25. 2/3rds of a 3.25" and a 3" tooth with the tip broken off. Didn't have any apple cider vinegar so spent 2 hours with my dental scraper on the big one.

Notable sightings. Swam over a 2-3 foot black tip shark. Saw some kind of yellow eel. Several Sea Cucumbers and a Porcupine Puffer.
