The San Diego Oceans Foundation had the HMCS Yukon towed to San Diego for a controlled sinking off Mission Bay. After thorough cleaning, the plan was to use explosives to ensure the ship sank upright. The strategy involved creating holes on both sides of the bow and stern, letting water fill the ship evenly. However, before this plan could be executed, swells during the night allowed water into...

First, to reach the turtle town area, would you recommend swimming straight out from the Marine Room entry about, say 50-100 yards then turn southwest? Second, to reach the La Jolla Cove kelp forest, would you recommend swimming straight (northeast) before turning due north? Thanks for your kind consideration!

      I should get back at it and do Shaws. When you're taking about the trench you're talking about the little crevasses you can enter into from the edge of the reef? There a lot of fun but can end up in white out conditions pretty fast if a swell comes through and fills the area with champagne bubbles.

    If you can get in it’s a great dive. My buddy and I swam out around 500’ then dropped down to around 110’ then made our way back in, the bottom has a stair case like rocks around 80’ it looked like the edge of the continental shelf. There’s giant white sea anemones way down there. Stop every 30’ to off gas but slowly make your way along the bottom. Funniest part was swimming out and past a guy fishing in a small boat 😂. Just be careful cuz it can get rough out there. Read the ocean beforehand!

      Marine protected area. Also, you likely aren’t maintaining a cool enough tank, though I don’t know your setup. They like temps in the 50’s and below. Above that they start to cook.

    Back in the 70s I was in High School and me and my school buddies surfed most of the various beaches in SoCal . We were avid readers of Surfer Magazine , and they frequently featured photos of people surfing La Jolla Shores , Blacks Beach and other nearby surf spots . We all decided that we should go there and check it out . I then came upon an article that said the La Jolla area was a place often frequented by Great White Sharks , which had routinely been caught off of the Scripps pier . It also said there were submarine canyons adjacent to shallow table areas running perpendicular to the beach that GWS use for coming close to shore and darting into the flats to capture prey . That's when I decided not to surf there , much less than night scuba dive there !! 😳😯🤯

    • @SDScuba
      @SDScuba 6 місяців тому

      They are there and I often find them while flying my drone in the area but they're generally small so they eat small things like stingrays and they're often times swimming just passed the break among the surfers. By the time they get big enough to eat mammals they head out to deeper water.
