So my wife and I are seriously considering moving to LA (area) in the next year or so. We got hooked on diving a few years back and are sick of freezing our ends off in NYC. We are originally from Florida and NY life isn't all that it was 6 years ago.
I have spent some time watching and reading here and also researching on other sites and the diving looks awesome. It seems that one could dive almost year round and that dive groups are all over the place. I'm not sure what I am trying to ask, maybe I am looking for positive reinforcement. I guess it looks so great, maybe what I am asking is what are the negatives? Is it really possible to shore dive year round? Are conditions bad more than I might think? Any thoughts on moving to LA (not just as a diver) from you all would be nice. Is the traffic really that bad? Crime? Thanks again folks! Is Catalina Island as cool as it looks on the internet and TV? How are conditions in Feb. and March? We dive dry. We are consididering a quick trip during the winter to check it out...
