California Diving News Dive Sites


California Diving News Dive Sites The California Diving News has published a lot of great California dive site descriptions, and put them on the CDN website, but there's no way to find a given site, or all the sites in a given area. I put together this index which covers February 1999 through March 2008, except for March 2005 which is for some reason "temporarily" unavailable (me thinks there was some disaster that caused them to lose the files). Note that some sites have been reviewed more than once, often by different authors with different viewpoints. Also, CDN moved their website from http://www.saintbrendan.com to http://www.cadivingnews.com starting with the October 2006 issue. They seem to be gradually working their way backwards copying their old issues to the new site, and creating an index of the dive sites containing the ones on the new site. If I've put a site in the wrong area, or messed up one of the links, please let me know and I'll fix it. Also, if the links to saintbrendan.com stop working, please let me know and I'll look into it.
