One of my favorite getaways is camping at Two Harbors on Catalina Island. Lugging camping gear and diving gear there can be a pain but during lobster season it's so worth it.

Much as I love Catalina diving, conditions have been awful this year.

Thanks scubasean for recognizing that Catalina is one of the eight Channel Islands! There are eight of them, four northern and four southern. Even some in the scientific community seem to forget this but those who belong to the "All Eight Club" (topside or underwater) realize it.
Much as I love Catalina diving, conditions have been awful this year. I've heard similar stories all up and down the coast. I really enjoy diving the Truth Aquatics boats out of Santa Barbara and the Peace out of Ventura when I'm diving the borthern islands.
There's good diving to be had at all eight!

Begins at 12:00 AM on September 28. That's midnight Friday, or early Saturday morning, depending on how you like to look at it. Which works out well, cause a night dive is usually the best way to nab them. (For me, anyway, you'll get as many opinions on this as you do _IR.) All of the Channel Islands are pretty good hunting, but there are a lot of game preserves, so make sure of where you are diving.gbrandon once bubbled...
