| Site Description: |
South Monastery Beach is arguably one of the best shore dives in
the Monterey area. Just a stone's throw away from Point Lobos,
the shallows of South Monastery offer a dense, rich and healthy
kelp forest with much the same fish and invertebrate life. The
best part of the dive is between 20'-60' fsw and is to the West
side of the entry.
Entries at this beach can be deceptively challenging. Entry/exit
should be done from the far West end of the beach. As always,
carefully assess conditions before deciding whether or not to
dive.
