Swell… just swell, Is my response when the ocean swells get larger just as the weekend starts. The CDIP site is predicting large swells coming from west to hit our area this coming Saturday, which means it'll make for a rough or dangerous beach entry/exit on west facing beaches... especially at night. So, we're going to do a beach dive at a south facing beach in Laguna, Deadman's Reef. "Don't snicker Sheree." As long as there's no fog, I think we will find the reef no problem :-)
Meet at Crescent Bay (the beach just on the West side of Shaw's Cove) at 10 am.
Deadman's is a bit of a swim, but if you relax and kick on your back, you'll get there before you know it. This time we're bringing an SMB, reel with line. I'll go down and locate the reef, then shoot the marker buoy up from. Just follow the line down. The last person down can deflate the buoy and bring it down to me so I can rewind the line and stow the SMB.
