I had a great time in San Diego this last weekend, thought I would share some pictures.
The underwater shots were taken at La Jolla Cove, CA and the lobster was taken near Point Loma, CA.

Calico and Garibaldi...

Some sort of kelp fish...

The only Lobster I found that was legal...

Nice shots, and a nice place to dive! I didn't know it was leagal to collect lobster inside the cove?

Here's a couple of shots I took just around the corner, off of casa cove, the last time I was out there- and a quick kelp shot I took off of Pt. Loma.

the last two times I was out that way the cove was closed due to pollution. :rcard

You had much better viz than I did. Yeah, the cove gets polluted when there is rain.

I don’t think that’s a rule there. They are messing with you. Most would want you to bring a float/dive flag so you don’t get run over. Although I don’t think boats are allowed there. Either way, that’s a bunch of crap and you should challenge that.
