Why dive here
Monument Point is a dive in California, United States. Water ranges 14-21°C, warmest July, August, September.
Monument Point serves up a classic California shore dive, accessible and rewarding for newer divers or those looking for an easy day out. We often find ourselves cruising through kelp forests here, spotting senoritas, calico bass, and sometimes even a sleepy horn shark tucked into the rocks. It’s a comfortable entry and typically calm, making it a reliable spot for knocking off some bottom time without a lot of fuss.
