Technical divers will probably not find much deep water within
beach diving range in the Monterey area, with the possible exception
of the north end of Monastery beach, which is close to a part of
Monterey Canyon.  I have never dived that spot myself, but I'm told
there is a very dramatic dropoff that goes as deep as you care to
go.

This is not to say, however, that there isn't plenty of perfectly
splendid diving to be had in the Monterey area.  Except for diving
within the Point Lobos marine preserve, no reservations are needed.
For that matter, even at Pt. Lobos you can usually get in during the
week this time of year without a reservation.

I will be glad to give free advice about where to dive here, but
remember, you get what you pay for :-)
