Post Dive Information from the Redondo Beach Fun Shore Dive Sept 26. The turn out was great with 16 divers. Once again for the 2nd time on a fun dive, we had excellent visibility (30-40'), great tides and a great group of divers. Better yet we seen lots of cool aquatic life as well, such as; lots of octos (some out and about), sailfin sculpin, grunt sculpin, mosshead warbonnets and saving the best for last a Sun Fish, not common to be seen.
Thank you: Lane, Steve, Dan, Jeanne, Rick, Steve & Sandi, Dylan, Curtis, Andrea & Dylan, Neil & Jocelyn, David, Terrell. SORRY if I missed anybody.

What inspired you to dive or who???
We ask this question to many of our students. WHO: Many of the answers are Sea Hunt with Lloyd Bridges, Jacques-Yves Cousteau, I am sure some of you can relate to them, these are for sure the two more popular answers to who. Then there are the typical answers, my friend/spouse/relative. WHY: I am going on a vacation to the tropics #1 answer, then there is my spouse/friend/relative wanted me too.
BUT now that you have been diving how has it helped you? Did it help you confront your fears, build your confidence, make a dream come true, help you relax, build a career in diving, strengthen your family time together?
I would love to hear your story of WHO and/or WHY? The best story will receive a special prize based on the story, OK remember this must be the truth, no sea stories.....hahaha....even thought divers can be very inventive. You could be a WINNER you never know, but then again if you are a diver we are all winners in our own way.
