Today we took out a group of six from the east bay area in Northern California as well as former Scuba Luv Instructor Chris Schad and current Scuba Luv Instructor Paul Thetreau. The boys went diving for food and photos. Needless to say, we all have something nice to look at, but our bellies stayed empty. We all had a great time and hope this group returns again real soon.<br /><br />P.S. Photos coming soon.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:180%;">Dive Sites</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">#1 - Hen Rock</span><br />Visibility - 35-50 feet<br />Water temperature - 57 degrees F<br />Conditions - Partly cloudy, but calm day - No real wind or current<br />Critters - Tons -O-Mantis Shrimp, Torpedo Ray, Spanish Shawl Nudibranch<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">#2 - Red Rock Quarry</span><br />Visibility - 45-80 feet<br />Water temperature - 57 degrees F<br />Conditions - Scattered Sunlight throughout the dive otherwise calm<br />Critters - Scythe Butterfly Fish, Abalone, Various Reef Fish<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">#3 - Torqua Springs</span><br />Visibility - 30-50 feet<br />Water temperature - 58 degrees F<br />Conditions - Scattered Sunlight and Calm<br />Critters - Angel Shark, Various Reef Fish<br /><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2689280402631181845-8639104632152639776?l=scubaluvcatalina.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>devin.elisehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06904606955790651599noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2689280402631181845.post-90351116085548182802009-01-26T11:13:00.000-08:002009-01-26T12:35:03.706-08:00Hi there divers!<br /><br />Today we took the Rotten Berry Dive Club and the Whiskey Dive Club out on a two tank dive.
