What Chris, and others, said. Old MarineLand, conditions permitting, Redondo at Vets Park for night dives, and I would add Malibu's Pt. Dume Pinnacles, if the conditions are good. That's the problem with shore diving... it's always going to be condition-dependent. There are no guarantees in life, and even fewer where shore diving is concerned.
Although if you can pop $54 for the Catalina Express, you can pretty much be assured of decent conditions almost all the time at Casino Point. Not quite the same as a "shore dive" in the traditional sense, but there you have it.
