Well, no sharks today but I've got another dive day planned for Wednesday both at the cove, then head up to Laguna (because it's my birthday on Thursday!! but my buddy could only swing Weds off).

Today's dive - it was warm thankfully. Very low tide, and it was like a lake out there. It got hazy here and there, but for the most part viz was great.





Water temp was 57, sun was shining, and we were down for 48 minutes. We dropped at the buoy (the white vertical pole looking one) and just swam back in slowly as our dive plan. Max depth 31fsw, average depth 17fsw (but we spent a while at 5-8fsw at the end). Despite the lack of sharks, I did see a lot of kelpfish which was a treat :) Here's a little kelpfish shimmy to get cleaned - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxDcO0hX5g4

Before our drop I saw these guys near the surface. Mackerel of some kind maybe??


Anyway, here's the dive:

There's a green kelpfish in there-

At the very end coming in - I was on the surface, water was maybe 6' deep.
