Welcome to our swim blog... it's all about swimming in the ocean, mostly in the La Jolla, California area. We're open-minded, open-water fans -- enjoying local marine creatures, fish, yellow tails, birds and even the occasional human swimming by... Just like to get BACK TO THE WATER, whenever and as often as we can!

weird fish
swam saturday,w/ claudia, al, lftc's friend(cant remember his name). best conditions in a long time...warm and clear. Had a seal play and swim around and under me over near the caves. coming back into the cove I encounter the weirdest looking fish i've ever seen!! The size of a dinner plate,completely flat, with fins on top and bottom, not side to side, color was whiteish/greyish kinda luminous. Cool,swimming, laying in the grass near the reefs. I heard it might have been a sunfish or "mula mula"?

Mola mola or sunfish... they've been spotted around. We saw over two dozen between the 1/4 and 1/2 mile buoys a couple of weeks ago. Very cool.
