Girella nigricans
The California Opaleye is characterized by its overall dark brown-gray coloration, grey-blue eyes, one or two white spots along its back just below the dorsal fin base, and blunt fin tips.
Located at the edge of the Catalina Casino building, the Casino Point Marine Park is Southern California's first city-designated underwater park. Established in 1965 by the City of Avalon as a reserve, Casino Point Marine Park has an abundance of marine life, giant kelp forests, and several shipwrecks to explore. Several artificial reefs have been established to provide additional habitats.
