The kelp forests of Monterey Bay are a draw to divers from around the world. The water temperature here averages a brisk 54 degrees and heavy exposure protection is necessary. But the abundant marine life and unique interplay of kelp forest, marine mammals, and human beings is an experience of a lifetime you won't want to miss.

The program takes approximately 3 hours to complete and is conducted at San Carlos Beach at the East end of Cannery Row.
