Catalina Divers Supply runs a boat called SCUBA CAT. The diving off Catalina Island is beautiful: kelp forests, the giant Black Sea Bass are making a wonderful comeback, garibaldi, rockfish, scorpionfish, nudibranchs, and an occasional sea lion zips by. The boat is great for diving: easy off (giant stride off the back) and on (sturdy ladders). There's a head on the boat and part of the boat is covered if you want to get out of the elements. Lunch is included. The crew are consistently excellent: safety conscious, friendly, helpful. They make a real effort to find the best dive spots depending on the conditions that day. |
