Overview
You'll get to participate in a water sport that has a high barrier to entry when it comes to skill and equipment without having to buy the equipment, learn to use it, and develop the necessary skill sets to turn the activity into both fun and food.
We will be at a pristine beach with paved walkways, sand entrance and restroom facilities that include showers.
There may be other divers present, or people just enjoying the tranquility of the beach at night, so expect to see few people.
The dive site is located in a sheltered cove surrounded by stunning mansions.

200 Poppy Ave
Enjoy the gorgeous coastline of Newport Beach, CA in an adventurous new way by joining me to explore local kelp forests and encounter the animals that call it home!
This is a unique and exciting activity that will expand your mind by exposing you to the diverse ecosystem waiting for you under the sea. We will commonly encounter great schools of Sargo moving in unison, Kelp Bass eyeing us uneasily from the shadows of the kelp forest and Sheepshead overseeing their harems. Also, we may be joined by playful harbor seals who are endlessly curious about our presence in their environment.
We will meet at the top of the hill, select each participant's equipment and then gear up on the beach to swim out to the kelp forest.
After our adventure, we will have an opportunity to prepare our catch as maki sushi, aguachile and uni sashimi using the sea urchins’ caviar while we relish the ocean's bounty at the shoreline.
