Eagle Reef
★★★★☆
(360)
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.
Among the rocky crevices and giant kelp, you’ll find colorful limpets, abalone, urchins, yellowtail, seabass, lobster, garibaldi, and sheepshead.
