Caissons & Big Concrete Pipes


Caissons:  One of my favorite dive spots!  Consist of two mysterious concrete structures located in 145-160ft of water out in front of Los Angeles Harbor.

Story behind the Caissons as discovered by Gary Fabian of UB88 Fame

Pipes: appear to be the same kind used to construct sewer outfalls.  They are probably extras that were disposed of at sea.  Maybe someone will research them and find the true answer.  I'm going to focus my energy on diving them as they're great fun!
