Diving San Clemente Island

Adam and I headed out with a charter group on the Horizon for a one day one night diving trip to San Clemente. We used Horizon Charters for the trip and had a pretty good experience – they have a nice operation and the crew was really good. I learned that sleeping on a boat has a bit of a learning curve.

We did three hour long dives over the morning and early afternoon before it was time to head back to San Diego. The first site was Fishhook, which had a nice wall (even a couple caves) and some decent kelp. The second site they said was “jesus rock”. It also had a decent wall and a lot more kelp. The third site was just north of fishhook. It has a little bit of a wall, and a lot of nice kelp. All three were really great dive sites. The visibility was 40-80 feet and the weather was fantastic. I’ll be coming back to the island again.
