- NOSC Tower - Former research tower knocked over during an El Nino storm in 1988. Lying in 65 feet of water is covered with invertebrate life and good for novice divers due to it's depth.
We offer 2 and 3 tank trips to Wreck Alley in conjunction with dives to the Point Loma Kelp Forest. We require a minimum of 10 cold water dives prior to diving in Wreck Alley due to depth, sometimes poor visibility, current and swell.
