Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Leffingwell Landing

It has a small cement ramp leading to the sand to launch kayaks or small zodiac style boats as you have to carry them across the sand a short distance to the water. Depth with in the cove is shallow with bad vis often but clears up as you head out further. If you stand at the cove and look out at the water you will see a wash rock a ways out. We tend to kayak and anchor to the north of the rock to spearfish. We have had vis up to 40ft at that location depending on conditions. The dive spot is located in Cambria on Moonstone Drive. As you cross the bridge you will see the cove and small ramp leading to the beach.

This site has a relatively easy entry and is close to lots of local amenities. Visibility is often very bad especially late spring, summer and early fall. The bottom topography is mainly small outcroppings with a few Macrocystis (giant Kelp). I did multiple dives at this site as part of a research project and only had one day of wonderful visibility. So if you get lucky there are some cool things to see.
