[@vondavidbrandon]

[@yiucycle]

Didn't know there is tiger shark in socal but thank god its only a leopard shark.

😂

[@kmattorney]

Leopard shark?

[@pvid9906]

Leopard shark not a Tiger shark!

[@bradsillasen1972]

Appears to be a Butterfly Ray @4:56. A rare find indeed in SoCal. First one I've seen on YT. The shark @3:04 is a harmless Leopard Shark. TIger Shark would offer a very different experience;-) Fortunately those are extremely rare in the northeastern pacific.

Beautiful scenery, thank you so much for sharing!

[@spitflamez]

That’s not a Tiger Shark buddy!

[@faithfamilyfriends3438]

Yeah, honestly I am a total novice and took a guess. I should have sone better research first 🤦‍♀️

[@isack707]

Is it safe to go here as a beginner? I’m worried about strong currents and sea animals that could hurt me

[@faithfamilyfriends3438]

I’m not an expert myself, and the ocean always consists of danger. However, as ocean water goes, the current in this area is mellow most days and as for sea animals, I felt safe. Never been stung or bitten by anything.

[@faithfamilyfriends3438]

I am a novice and purchased the ones recommend by the scuba shop where we were certified. I’m not even aware of the name brand. 🤷‍♀️

[@joshuamunson5841]

Cressi has some nice and affordable masks. I do recommend getting one at a dive shop, so you can get one that fits right.

Our corals are dying …sadly we lost so many around the world 🌎

[@robertpickering9942]

I use to dive there as a kid back in the early 80s. No different now than then. Nothing is dying there.
