Thanks Surfrdude for your comments. And thanks for the info on the cruise board about the little sea monkeys. I've signed up and looking forward to it. Happy cruising.

Okay, I did it! It was a little cold when you first get in the water but otherwise a really fun expirence!! The visibility was really good (20-30 ft) and the kelp was HUGE!

THanks for letting us know how it turned out, Kikahead. Can we look forward to a more extensive trip report?

I took the snorkeling excursion and it was wonderful. Water temp was 57 degrees, therefore only chilly at the beginning. Good visibility because it had been overcast for a few days. The people who run it are terrific. I would highly recommend it. Lots of fun.
