Hi All, I snuck away yesterday morning and my buddy and I were the 2nd car into pt lobos after it opened. Weather was nice and clear further north in santa cruz, but overcast in monterey for most of the day. Water temp 50 degrees.
Whaler's cove was flat, but there was about a 5 foot swell hitting the cannery pt rocks. We did two dives, one along the cannery point wall and the other was mostly middle reef and a quick stop to check out the caverns (couldn't see much there as the surge was pretty rough and the vis down as a result).
The cannery point dive was a long swim, but really amazing. The second dive was not as dramatic as the other, but had it's moments.
For those of you that have been to pt lobos and are diving without a boat or scooter, what's your favorite dive spot/plan there? I'm going again in March, and my current thought is that if I had to do it again, I'd probably do the same first dive and the second dive I'd maybe stay closer to cannery point to avoid the second long swim.
