About Us

Nannette and Bill are avid scuba divers who live in the Los Angeles area. They travel all over the world in search of great diving. Luckily, they find it almost everywhere they look, including in their own backyard in the rocky reefs off the California coast and the kelp forests of the Channel Islands! They love all kinds of marine creatures, but they both have a particular fondness for the weird and wonderful macro critters that are typically hidden away in the reefs.
