 The Monterey Bay Submarine Canyon is huge. It's the largest undersea canyon on the West Coast of the United States — and begins right offshore. It descends from a depth of about 60 feet (18 m) to nearly 12,000 feet (3,656 m) at a distance of 60 miles (97 km) off the coast. Why Scuba Divers Can't Resist Monterey The diving experience in Monterey is unlike anywhere else. Divers are drawn to the area's underwater canyon and kelp forests. They possess one-of-a-kind marvels that can't be replicated by other diving sites. People are also enticed by Monterey County diving for more practical concerns. They love the area's strong diving safety and excellent visibility. If you like the idea of anywhere between 10 and 30 feet of clear visibility, you'll simply want to scuba dive in Monterey. The Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary's waters are full of beneficial nutrients. That's why the sanctuary is home to a dazzling array of marine creatures. Divers in the region get the exciting opportunity to feast their eyes on marine animals galore. If you want to dive and check out some of the most interesting and beautiful examples of marine life out there, you can't go wrong with a dive in Monterey County. Examples of underwater wildlife include seals, otters, sea lions, rockfish grouper and lingcod, starfish, and abalone. Monterey is known by many to be a fantastic location for cold water diving. People can credit the Monterey Bay Submarine Canyon for this which has an amazing depth of 10,663 feet. Year-round water temperature at diving depths is between 48-52 F (approx 10 C).

It is easy for dive skills to get rusty and to lose confidence when you have not dived for a while. With the SSI Scuba Skills Update, we will get you back in the water and diving with ease in no time. This scuba refresher course allows you to review and practice scuba skills you learned in your Open Water Diver program, under the guidance of an SSI Professional. This is a great course to take just before a dive holiday, so you spend less time worrying about your skills and more time admiring the marine life. If you are a non-certified Open Water Diver student, a Scuba Skills Update is ideal for practicing your dive skills before your open water training dives. With no fixed course duration, you can take your time and focus on the skills you need help with. High SIerra Divers 530-823-6757
