This page contains a small smattering of photos to showcase not only the variety of wildlife in the Santa Barbara Channel, but also the variety of “reef-” and “sea-scapes.” Especially the experience of diving in a kelp forest adds a dimension to diving that keeps us all going back time after time. These photos were contributed by several members of our club. Some of these photos are taken during trips to the islands of the Santa Barbara Channel, others while beach diving along the coast of Santa Barbara. Both the islands and the beaches offer amazing dive opportunities.
