    Ben Weston Point gives you a classic California kelp forest dive. You’ll weave through the swaying fronds, keeping an eye out for garibaldi, rockfish, and maybe a sheephead. It’s a good shore dive for those who enjoy temperate water diving and don't mind a bit of a trek. Look for sea lions playing in the shallows if you’re lucky.
