Aptly named, The Goldfish Bowl is offers a good variety of fish including garibaldi, sheephead, calico bass and senorita wrass that can be found along the rocky reef and kelp, large schools of blue rockfish cruising through the water column while bat rays soar along the sand. The shallow reef begins in the cove at the base of the steep cliffs at the water line and extends outward approximately 100 yards to about 60’ deep where the rocky reef turns to a sandy bottom. The inner protected portion of this cove is what is called The Goldfish Bowl.
The variety of life that may be seen here offers a great experience to both the diver and snorkeler. Keep your eyes peeled for giant sea bass which show up here in the summer. Beyond the edge of the reef you may encounter schools of yellowfin tuna swimming higher in the water column.
