December 24, 2009 – Pt. Lobos

December 24, 2009

Elissa, Devin, and I met up with April, a visiting diver from Seattle. Fortunately for us, there was a mid week lull between two storm systems. As the result, we were greeted with calm seas and only moderate surge.

In the water, visibility was a clean 20′, and you could see outlines and shapes quite well at 30′ away.

The first dive, a friendly seal followed us all the way passed Lone Metridium. We separated at 70′, the seal resting at the bottom and us cruising along the western wall.

The second dive, April led us around Middle Reef. Some large cabazons, resting comfortably on rocky reefs.
