Riverside Scuba and Lake Perris Guide

Arrive before sunrise at Lake Perris for the clearest water and easy parking. This location offers straightforward access from Riverside, with signs guiding you to Marina Cove and Eastshore.

What follows is a concise plan for a safe, enjoyable session: bring your own gear or rent on-site, and work with a local instructor if you are new; both beginners and senior divers can join small groups, and all participants should carry their certification details and note the date of their last training.

Follows these practical tips: also, keep valuables locked in your vehicle, and stay in designated zones to protect wildlife. Mussels cling to rocky edges along parts of the shore, so step carefully. Anglers and hunters share the lakefront, so coordinate timing to avoid conflicts near boat channels and access points.

In december, expect water in the 50s to low 60s Fahrenheit; wear a 4/3 mm to 5/4 mm wetsuit, bring a light hood if you feel chilly, and plan your outing for the cooler morning hours when visibility is typically better. The sunset light can be striking from certain overlooks, so many explorers wrap up near the water’s edge as daylight fades.

Special notes: check local memorial areas for any posted guidelines and respect posted parking limits. Local residents and anglers appreciate quiet mornings, so keep noise low and move calmly along the shoreline.

潜水点聚焦:佩里斯湖潜水点、深度及交通

从箭头区开始:深度通常达到 25–45 英尺,近海陆架向下倾斜至主盆地的约 60 英尺处。 计划一次 40–60 分钟的水下短途旅行,与您的团队待在一起,并在您移动到超出岸边可见范围时部署水面浮标以跟踪您的位置。 这样的规划有助于确保船只和其他船只安全地避开入口路径,并为所有湖泊使用者维护边界。.

关键区域包括“箭头”地带,那里的岩石构造形成了裂缝和鱼类栖息地;南岸线则提供了沙质底部和水草边缘,非常适合初次探索者;中北部陆架拥有岩石肋和水下结构,使用指南针和线绳小心导航会有所回报。如果条件允许,早上水会更清澈,这有助于从安全距离更容易地发现展品和水下特征。.

出入许可来自公园管理部门。持有有效许可证或当日通行证;船只和其他 vessel 需注册并遵守入侵物种计划规则。中心工作人员可以帮助您确认特定日期的更新;请在旅行前查看游客中心的计划和展览。部门工作人员致力于让人们了解安全入口、边界和允许的出入。.

安全与礼仪:与南岸的垂钓者保持适当距离;以小组形式行动,并留在批准的边界内;熊出没警告可能出现在岸边附近,因此请妥善存放食物并保持警惕。始终遵守速度限制,尊重系泊区域,并且只能从允许的坡道下水;这可以降低水上每个人的风险。.

规划提示:春季和秋季通常能见度更高,环境更平静;在出行前,请在公园网站上核实通行证或准入方式是否有任何变更;请携带有效的许可证,并在需要时出示通行证。公园部门的项目为游客提供学习机会,游客中心的展览则介绍了当地的生态系统背景——对于带孩子或团体出行的游客来说,这是一个很有帮助的资源。.
