  • Surface Interval #3 - A Day In The Life with Jay & Sarah in San Diego, CA.
    Apr 30 2024

    In today's short Surface Interval episode, Jay and Sarah share a few minutes of their day as they enjoyed a shore dive at La Jolla Shores in San Diego, CA.

    Recorded after their meet and greet at La Jolla Shores, they were able to enjoy a shallow dive together off the coast and experience what that location has to offer. According to Sarah, it has improved greatly from her last visit so if you have the chance to go "play" with some sea lions, that's the location to do it.


    Shout out to Exos Dive in San Marcos, CA for keeping Jay aired up.
