san clamente island

For those that want to dive in california and has done catalina,, next islans is san clamente.......It is beautiful and on the surface you I saw blue whales, otters and seals oh yes dolphins,, the places i dove was the wall, small flower and the arch. Kelp rich with lots of fish. I even saw a ball of chetto on the bottom floor at 60 feet.....lobsters starfish and the stripped golbly were everyewere next to the urchuns .....fun dives on board the magic, water was great.. try it , now is the time to scuba
 
you mean the boat the magician? San Clamente is a beautiful island, just dont set foot on shore!!!! the marines don't take kindly to visitors, you may end up with a nice hole or two in your new wetsuit as proof! I haven't been there in a while, did you see the giant kelp? When I was there, there was a MAJOR thermocline, so bad that as our group passed it, it looked like bad acting from a scifi movie when the bad guy turns some death ray on the hero, and he kinda curls up and spins circles holding his head... glad you enjoyed yourself, no go dive Farnsworth banks!
 
huge kelp forest..yes they still bomb the place. 13 degree thermocline i believe lost of fishing boats loking for yellow fin tuna. I want to do other dives around the coast.
