Over all not a bad few days. Haven't done a beach dive in years.. Oh, and Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there!!
Good diving today off Alhambra. 10' to 15' viz lots of small teeth. Lots of sea life. If anyone sees a dive flag heading west with about 20' of rope attached to it it probably would be mine! We tried swimming to get it but the faster we went it went faster west. Then we had a good size boat heading full speed for us so we went back down and back to shore!!! Good day though!

Tide was incoming until high around 11:50 AM
D and I dove for about one hour and took a break on her yak, then dove again for 1/2 hour. Viz was great (for Venice) and there was lots of life around the blocks, as you can see in the pictures (also some snot floating around). We both had a great time. Too bad the 2 inch meg I found was not whole, drats!

Seas Flat
Water Temp 81
Vis 6"-18"
Max depth 25'
Finds a few small teeth and some sea biscuts
lots of silt didn't find much that wasn't covered
but with the vis the way it was I could of been right next to an area and not seen it
did find a seahorse
Just out of curiosity today I dove down at 28 feet and saw silt until I hit the bottom. Once I was there id say it was 6 inches of viz. Needless to say I went straight back to the boat. Hopefully it cleans up by mid week.
