    Net Reef is a decent shore dive on the Southern California coast. We usually find gorgonian corals and plenty of macro subjects like nudibranchs tucked into the crevices. It’s a pretty easy entry and exit, making it a good spot for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed afternoon dip. Visibility can be hit or miss, typical for the area, but on a good day, it’s a pleasant dive.
