If you know your survey site coordinates, enter them manually in decimal degrees using WGS84 Map Datum. Use the minus sign for latitudes south of the equator and longitudes west of the Prime Meridian to 180 degrees.

If you do not know your survey site coordinates, click the “Map Location” tab to use the map to zoom into your survey site and drop the pin on the map to fall within your survey dive site in the water (not on land or the beach). Ensure you zoom in as much as possible to ensure data accuracy.

33.345318859797, -118.32664988672

This survey was completed in tandem with the 40th Annual Avalon Underwater Harbour Cleanup event, with the help of our partners at Seiko! The tradition started in the 1970s in a community effort to clean the harbor, and this year, USC's Catalina Hyperbaric Chamber and Wrigley Institute for Environmental Studies–Catalina Conservation Divers are proud to do our part in protecting the health of one of Catalina's coastal treasures by hosting the 40th Annual Avalon Harbor Underwater Cleanup.
This dive site is where many boaters reside, so it makes sense that the types of debris we found were mostly human daily use related, rather than fishing gear.
Released unharmed!
released unharmed while sorting marine debris
These fish were sadly entangled and thus not able to be released unharmed.

This dive site was next to Green Pier. Most of the debris is commonly found near fishing sites and frequent human activity.
All crabs were sorted and released unharmed!
The most unusual item was the helm of a small boating craft!
These animals were found inside of plastic debris and removed safely back to the ocean.

The octopus was inside a bottle and released safely.
