AI Spot Summary

Marine Street is feeling a bit unruly today with that NW cross-onshore wind chopping up the surface and making the entry through the surf zone a bit of a workout. The 3-4 ft swell is keeping things churned up, and with the recent light rainfall, the water clarity is suffering. The estimated visibility today is 5-10 ft, so expect to spend more time navigating the kelp than spotting the local garibaldi.

Site Notes

West-facing and exposed to direct Pacific swell — only worth diving on small, clean days. Sand entry with rocky reef and kelp once you're past the break. Best at low tide for tidepool exploration; surf can stack quickly with any incoming NW swell. Less protected than nearby La Jolla Cove.
