Hi Lisa,
I don't know if you were able to make it to Monterey or not, but if you didn't, you didn't miss much. I thought I was going to be on-call during the weekend, but I found out last minute that some one else took on-call and I was able to go diving.
Our first dive was at Lover's Point. It was a little windy with some wave action going on. The water was at 52F, very surgy and visibility was between 5 to 8 feet at best. The surge kept turning us around, it seemed that every time I looked at my compass, I was heading on a different direction, but luckily we ended up not too far from the beach.
Our second dive wast at Breakwater where condition were about the same so we dicided to just practice some navigation skills.
I did hear reports that Point Lobos had visibility raging from 30 to 60 feet outside Whaler Cove, but ofcourse, we didn't have reservations to get into the park, so we got stuck with the low vis sites. Oh Well!!!
