I'm going solo tomorrow for an end of season ab dive, I've been diving the Sonoma coast for years but I've been diving from Stillwater up to Horseshoe Cove mostly.  

If I dive Ft Ross, from shore, any suggestions as to where to go would be appreciated, not trophy hunting, just looking for some abs to close the season.

Company would be great, looks like conditions will be best mid to late day so I probably won't get up there til 10 or so.

Thanks

Dale L

That's the one place I haven't dove but I see a lot of people diving the north end of the beach. Not too far out either.

If you go to Fort Ross, I would recommend the north end of the cove. Park in the main Ft Ross parking lot (NOT Reef Campground. This is a mile or so north of Reef Campground.) From the parking lot, hike down the road and cut across to the trail that leads down along the cliff that borders the north end of the cove. This is the most sheltered area from the northwest swell, although it is somewhat picked over.

Be safe.
May the fish be mighty and the seas be meek...
