McAbee Beach N36deg.36.9338' W121deg.53.9555' 425-500+X 3sh 200 4sh 999 5sh 175-200 10sh 50-100   McAbee Beach can be used by beginners and experts, alike. The easy entry leads to a large kelp bed just a minute off shore. Several old pipelines create an artificial reef, making this a complete site for marine viewers! http://www.shorediving.com/Earth/USA_West/CalN/McAbee_Beach/index.htm    
Lover's Point 1,2,3 N36deg.37.5578' W121deg.54.9511' 450+X 3sh 100 4sh 999 5sh 300 10sh 50   restrictions to diving

Coral Street N36deg.38.1282' W121deg.55.6377' 150+X 4sh 999 5sh 100 10sh 50       Coral Street can be a technical dive if the conditions aren't just right. The kelp growth in August and September can be daunting, and the currents can catch you by surprise. Plan this dive with a dive shop, and take a buddy with you who has been here before. Do take your camera, as the macro life is spectacular! http://www.shorediving.com/Earth/USA_West/CalN/Coral_Street/index.htm
