Also commonly referred to as “Seacrest Park Cove 2” or just “Cove 2”, this dive site is one of the most popular in Seattle. Stairs on either side lead to a mildly steep rocky beach entry. Dive site has a gradual depth to 90’ with many artificial features that host marine life. No-dive boat lane is marked by yellow and orange buoys.

What to expect:

This is an easy entry shore dive. A top dive site with gradual depth, artificial reefs and training opportunities for all levels.
A marked no-dive boat lane (Ferry Lane) requires divers to stay clear of the ferry.
Visibility "hazy" 5-10 feet depending on storm activity. Heavy rains and runoff in early 2026 have led to extremely limited visibility and a layer of new silt across the site.
Due to low light and hazy conditions, divers are strongly advised to carry at least two working lights.
Water temperature will be around 39 degrees.
Wildlife to see: GPO, sea stars, anemones, crabs and various fish
Amenities: Public restrooms, rinse showers, picnic tables and nearby food vendors.
