Details: When the opportunity arises to dive in the kelp forests off Pt Lonsdale i’m there. Its always an exciting dive with the strong currents, but swimming amongst the Giant kelp stands(Macrocystis pyrifera) is always memorable. In the heavy current area i spotted a Blue Groper. It was tough to get a photo of with the current and with a fisheye, but managed an ID shot.
