Ammo Jetty
Shallow macro jetty dive at sheltered Woodman Point.

Artificial Reef
Best on calm, low-swell starts when you can work the shaded pylons slowly; visibility is often modest and active fishing makes a dive flag essential.
About Ammo Jetty
Ammo Jetty is a sheltered shore-entry dive at Woodman Point where shaded piles, sand patches, and bits of weed growth reward slow macro laps more than big-distance swims. It suits newer divers and photographers on calm days, but the same public-jetty setting means you need to stay alert for fishing lines, nearby vessels, and wind-driven surface chop.
