    Tanner Bank sits way out in the Pacific, a serious commitment for divers looking for California's deeper, wilder side. It's a series of pinnacles, rising from significant depths, where you’ll often find pelagics like blue sharks and even sunfish cruising the currents. The real draw is the deep water gorgonians and the chance for big animal encounters, but this isn't a beginner’s spot; strong currents and variable conditions are common. We'd suggest it for experienced divers comfortable with challenging offshore diving.
