Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Cannery Park
Cannery Park (also called San Carlos Beach) is just West of the Breakwater dive site. This is a nice place for a second dive, and to get away from the crowd at Breakwater. The dive area is mainly sandy, so expect to see the occasional Halibut.
In Monterey, heading West on Del Monte, bear right onto Lighthouse Ave, then bear right onto Foam St. Make a right onto Cannery Row.

Went diving 2/12/2011. Visibility this time of year seems to be much better than summer late fall, probably because of less algae and plankton in the water. Kelp forests were in less abundance this time of year, which is normal, and visibility was 20ft +, which I consider a good day for Monterey. Topside was calm and surf was minimal. Followed the pipe to the metridium fields, lots of life, very playful harbor seal. On a good day with good vis., this is a great site for anyone wanting easy entry, easy parking, etc.
