We can't think of a better way to start the academic year than diving into the Pacific Ocean with your friends and the campus community! The Plunge is a Cal State Monterey Bay tradition where we invite you and all Otters to dip into the cold ocean the day before classes. Start the year off strong and surrounded by your Otter community.
What to bring:
- Water
- Towel
- Warm layers
- Swimsuit
- High tolerance for cold water
