To all Scuba Divers and Ocean Lovers traveling to San Diego for this years Comic-Con event, come join the Roddenberry Dive Team, Power Scuba and The Whiskey Divers for a morning of adventure as we dive La Jolla’s Underwater Ecological Preserve. Generally, as scuba divers, we never need an excuse to go diving but in this particular case we’ve joined forces to provide our out-of-town aquatic brethren an unforgettable dive opportunity.
DONUTS & COFFEE: For the early birds; a few of us will be arriving at La Jolla Shores (next to “Kellog Park” around 5:30am to enjoy the sights and sounds of the ocean as the sun pours onto the pacific (Sunrise = 5:56 am). Coffee, Donuts and Muffins will be available to the first 50 (approx) people that arrive. We plan on gathering at one of the beach-side fire-pits for a bit of warmth and camaraderie. (If you have extras chairs and are willing to bring them, please do so for our out of town guests).
DIVING & DISCOVERY: Around 7:30 am Scuba Divers will begin suiting up for our adventure to the La Jolla Underwater Canyon. Once geared-up and ready, we’ll do a surface-swim out about 100 yards to where the depth is approximately 40+ feet. After a final buddy/gear check, we’ll descend to bottom where we’ll continue west to a maximum depth of 100’. From there, each buddy team, while monitoring there depth, time and air, will explore this magnificent underwater realm and gradually work their way east back to the shore.
RSVP: If you are planning on attending this event, please send at email to: rsvp@roddenberrydiveteam.com with your Name, Email, Phone Number so we may contact you about last minute changes, should there be any. Also, in an effort to improve our services and future programs, please also let us know if you are bringing your own Scuba Gear or if you are renting it and if so, from what dive facility. Thank you for your help!
DIVE GEAR/RENTALS: The La Jolla Shore water temperature ranges from the low 50‘s at depth to the high 60‘s at the surface. Generally a 7mm wetsuit is ideal. At this point in time scuba gear (Tanks, Weights, etc...) will NOT be provided on site. All scuba equipment must be brought to the site and if necessary rented from a local dive retailer. If renting, remember to call a San Diego based dive shops and reserve your gear in advance and pick it up the day before. Here are two San Diego dive shops I recommend (More can be found online):
Sports Chalet
Ocean Enterprises
OEX Dive & Kayak Center
A representative from APS Mantaray Dive Fins will be on site to demo their fins.
PARKING: La Jolla Shores has an extremely convenient parking lot located next to the beach and only a few years from where we’ll be gathering and doing our dives. The cross-streets are “Calle Frescota” & “Camino del Oro”. Click HERE to see a map of the dive site and parking lot.
