NOSC TOWER

Coordinates: 117º 16' 03" W by 32º 46' 21" N

Knocked over by an El Nino storm in 1988, the NOSC (Naval Ocean Systems Center) Tower once stood over 100 feet tall and was used for research of internal waves, swell, wave propagation and numerous other areas. Consisting of four stories, the tower had a dive platform, and above that labs that have parts missing that still haven't been found. Now sitting at a depth of 70 feet (although the top is only about 35 feet down), the tower is a haven for lobster and numerous other forms of marine life.
