Dive Site Info: From the split in the fence, enter the water. The pipe starts at 8’ during low tide but is harder to see while buried in algae and sand. If you swim out to about 20’, you will find the pipes easier. The pipe is approximately straight out from the split in the fence. It runs down to 85’. If you find some blue plastic milk crates, head north to find the pipes, you are about 30-40’ south of the pipe. Look around the cement supports for signs of Giant Pacific Octopus. They are hiding out there. If you go to the south from the pipes at 80’ or so, you will find some sea whips. Take some time during your safety stop to enjoy the shallows. Plenty of life lurking around in the algae.
