I'm really torn on snorkeling on Catalina Island this November. I've mostly snorkeled in warm Hawaiian waters and don't fare to well with cold water, but this is my girlfriend's first time cruising and she's dead-set on snorkeling during our stop in Catalina Island.
It looks like the most popular place to snorkel is Lover's Cove, but the reviews are a mixed bag. Many say it's great, but far too many say the fish are aggressive, the beach sucks, etc, etc.
Does anyone have experience snorkeling on Catalina, especially during winter months? Would you recommend Lover's Cove or finding a boat that can take us to better spots?
Catalina Island in November?
in Scuba and Snorkeling
