Exploring an Unnamed Kelp Forest
Join me as I explore an unnamed reef while scuba diving from my stand up paddleboard.
This is episode 3 of my adventure diving blog. The goal is to bring you along on some of my typical scuba dives in Northern California. I start the day without a storyline and just see what happens, so please excuse the lack of polish on the storyline, footage and with editing - that is intentional.
The dive site is a nereocystis kelp forest reef exposed to frequent northwest swell, making it only diveable on the calmest days of the year, and then only by those who make the long paddle out or own a small boat.
