Naval Ocean Systems Tower

In 1988 a strong winter storm knocked down the Naval Electronics Lab ("The Tower"), research tower which had been a fixture ½ mile off the San Diego coast since 1959. The tower looked very much like an oil rig and was always a good dive because it attracted many fish and was home to a multitude of small marine life. Now the entire structure lies in 60 feet of water and is still home to many species of marine life.
