Greg Hoberg and I took his rigid hulled zodiac out for a couple of dives last Tuesday. Seas were not nearly as calm as forecast-ed but we made our way around from Monterey Bay to the shelter of Still Water cove in Carmel Bay for our first dive off Pescadero Point. We only had 10 to 15 ft visibility but we were out of the surge and enjoyed the incredibly dense sea life on the small walls there. Here's a couple pictures from our dive:
Small octopus in abandoned acorn barnacle shell (just above the orange bat star).
My latest attempt to get a decent picture of a kelpfish (aka kelp blenny).

Our second dive was on Eric's Pinnacle out of the swell in Monterey Bay. We had 10 to 15 ft visibility due to the plankton bloom (normal green summer water). Here are a couple of pictures from this dive:

The light and the visibility were better at the top of Eric's Pinnacle.
