It's time for my DiveMaster mapping project. I'll be mapping a dive site below the Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf, starting from the boat launch.
It's been a while since I dove this site, but I recall very little visibility, a sandy bottom and nothing but piers every sixteen feet. It will be a real challenge to find features worthy of navigating to.
Does anybody have any ideas about landmarks I should map under the wharf? Sunken cars? Shopping carts?
Rumor has it that there is an artificial reef of tires on the South East side, that might be fun to map- can any one confirm?
I'll be pleased to post the results of my mapping project for the community to use. This is one of the few dive locations in Santa Cruz. While visibility is low, if we had a map perhaps more folks would dive the location.
Oh- Anyone want to go dive the wharf with me? Vis is so bad there we could do a nite dive
