SaltCreek, WA: Also more at psdivers.com and at poolesdive.com
Nice place to camp and dive, a lot of spaces and good views... park closes at a weird time so check it out before you plan the trip... I figured 3 hours? from SeaTac Airport going around the inlet... Ferries on a Friday after work will probably take just as long... heheh unless you hit Friday Traffic on the Freeways and Bridges etc... Check out the Camp sites at WA State Parks and the times. It did book up early on so, the earlier you get there the better.... as it seems with all the parks these days.. Don't forget to check out the Bunkers on the hill...
 |
...the entrance, be it ever so humble, it's still a home... actually the best camp sites are located through the trees on the left .."over the hills and through the woods..." blah-blah-blah..... |
| As you drive through the woods, the campsites will change from barren land, where the RV's stay to the Tree lined campsites we're all accustomed to... up the hill leads to the bunkers... and a good view... |  |

Dive site # 1, I believe down near the entrance, east of the grassy park area.. lotsa kelp and surge... and of course looky-loos.... |
| Dive Site # 2, just west of #1, looking at Vancouver Island in the distance. See all the white stuff, bubbles from the surge... heheh just jump right in.... (joking) |  |
 |
... just on the NW side of the point, the 3 rock area, stairs on the left leading down... a little beach is on either side for entrance, but some surge... good for getting out there, just let it carry you - hold on - and swim like mad... heheh not that bad... |
| This is just at the point, although shallow in the bowl, on the outside should be a good area. Didn't dive it yet, but on the list for next time.... looking directly west.. |  |
 |
..on the point, a dive site... #4 , just around the corner from the above pic. This is the entrance to the area... pretty sites... |
| ...and just a little further around the point we come into a bay with this rock... a shallow area, but look like fun anyway.... |  |
 |
... heheh well, had to get one in... good food, Chicken Flambé' in Cognac with a Champagne Sauce.... and NOT out of a can... All ya gotta do is show up..... I'll cook... you eat... but don't forget the Champagne... Mumms that is.... ;-P |
