★★★★☆ Christmas Tree Reef
Freshwater dive site perfect for beginning divers and training dives. One of the most popular dive sites in Lake Pleasant. This is also a great snorkeling site. The water is always calm at this dive site.
★★★★☆ Vista Point
Vista Point is a shore dive that is great for both recreational and technical divers. Visibility is generally best during the cooler times of the year. During the summer, it is a longer walk/hike to the water’s edge. The best time during the day is in the morning.
★★★★☆ Corona Del Mar State Beach
Corona del Mar State Beach is a great local beginner dive. Enter and exit at lifeguard tower 5 only. This is a City of Newport Beach requirement. Kick out to the first buoy in front of tower 5. This will be about 100m out. Descend and follow the reef towards the east.
★★★★☆ Rock Quarry
Just off the shore at an old quarry site where the materials to build Long Beach Harbor were mined. This location can have strong currents, but offers both shallow and deep water exploration. This location is reachable by boat only.
★★★★☆ Isthmus Reef
Isthmus Reef is a popular dive site on Catalina Island reachable only by boat. It’s a great site for open water students and newer divers due to its sheltered location and shallow depth.
★★★★☆ Bird Rock - Catalina Island
One of the best dive sites on Catalina Island, Bird Rock varies from shallow rocks to steep drop-offs and a beautiful arch. The shallow rocky area is great for snorkeling and the entire site is great for new to advanced divers. The water is nearly always clear, calm and generally without current.
★★★★☆ Eagle Reef
Eagle Reef is a large rocky structure teaming with life. This is an awesome kelp dive; Catalina Island at it’s finest. This site is only reachable by boat, either private or dive charter. Plan to dive in the morning before winds have a chance to kick up and watch for possible strong currents.
★★★★☆ Lulu Reef
Not to be confused with its close, more popular neighbor Eagle Reef, Lulu Reef is a series of three rock pinnacles inside Eagle Reef on the mainland of Catalina Island’s west end. Since it is a bit off shore it’s best reached by boat.
★★★★☆ Doctors Cove
Mainland side of Catalina Island just northwest of Emerald Bay. Your access is by boat only unless you have access to Boy Scout Camp onshore in which case you can dive it from shore or kayak. You will be looking at depths of 20 to 55 feet with an average visibility of 30 to 50 feet.
★★★★☆ Parson’s Landing
Parson’s Landing is a beautiful secluded cove on Catalina Island that’s just as scenic above water as it is underwater with great diving and snorkeling right from the shore! You can even camp here right on the beach. The cove is usually nice and calm as it is protected from most weather.
★★★★☆ Golden Arches
Golden Arches is your typical Hawaiian reef dive off the Kona coast. Visibility gets better the deeper and further away from the surf zone you get. Check conditions as the current can get strong here at times.
★★★★☆ Desert Tortoise
This is a super easy site that is perfect for newer open water divers or classes. Most of the area has gentle slopes so it does not get deep very quickly.
