Channel Islands Break Wall
★★★★☆
(168)
An easily accessible dive site from Channel Island Beach. A great spot for beginners with an easy swim out to the site. Lots of critters hiding within the rocks of the break wall.
Lots of typical California kelp species, sea lions, horn sharks, rays, octopuses, and lots of urchins, sea stars, and nudibranchs.
