Channel Islands Trips
We do some serious diving during our southern islands Channel Islands trips.
We go with
Truth Aquatics, leaving from Santa Barbara, and usually
go aboard the
Vision.
The Southern Islands
itinerary includes two full days of diving on San Clemente,
including all of the fabulous spots at the southern tip (e.g. Octopus Gardens,
Pyramid Head), then on to Catalina Island on day 3. Everyone loves
Farnsworth Banks, but if it's too rough there, you might get treated to some
diving on Little Farnsworth. Captain Tommy also has a secret dive spot where
divers are able to get up close and personal with the
Giant Sea Bass. On day 4, on the way home, we stop at Anacapa and/or then
Santa Cruz. These islands are often a good place for scallop hunters to
catch their limit.
It is quite easy to do 15-20 dives
on a 4 day trip,
including night dives. The food is hearty, the company is good, what more could you want?
Below are some sample photos of our Truth Aquatics Southern Islands experiences. We
loved every minute! And, we are always looking to go back for more!
