Dry Dock!!!

Post by ScubaJess »

Hello Everyone!!!

I hope you are all having a fantastic dive weekend!

I went to Edmonds Underwater Park yesterday for the first time, for 2 dives (dive #10&11)! It was AMAZING!!! There is a place called the Dry Dock! It was stunning! Soooo many huge fish! I saw Cabezon & Ling Cod! Also there were a lot of super cute tiny fish! Nudibranch eggs are the coolest thing ever! Tons to see there! I hope you can all go sometime! Other cool creatures I saw: Leopard Dorid, tons of flounder, lots of funny crabs! Baby hermit crab, clown Nudibranch, sea lemons, white tip Nudibranch, a baby Sunflower Seastar, a huge leather star, mating painted greenlings, a blood star, the biggest crab I've ever seen!!! So many tube snouts, shiner perch, feather duster worms! And many more amazing sea creatures!!!

After that I went for dive #12 at Redondo Beach WA not CA! It was really fun too! I saw 2 Red Octos! We went down to 55' my deepest dive yet!! There is a really cool pipe down there! Saw some green sea urchins, grunt sculpins, buffalo sculpin, sail fin sculpin, a mob of graceful crabs, more Nudibranch eggs, alabaster Nudibranchs, some kind of long fish (kind of like a eel), crescent gunal, and so much more! Then the water got pretty murky! It was getting pretty dark, the rain clouds moved in, so I think this is what night diving is like! It was awesome! Glad I had a super bright light and amazing dive buddy with me!

Sorry for my excessive rambling! I just love diving! It was soooooo cool!! Off to Keystone tomorrow! It will be so nice to go back there!

Have a fun and safe diving weekend everyone!

The dry dock is off limits and any dive on the dry dock could bring severe repercussions.

Hi Jess!

Thanks for an amazing dive report!

Please don't loose your enthusiasm for our magical underwater world. As long as you keep coming up from your dives babbling like crazy about the cool starfish and everything else you saw, diving will always be a wonder & a joy.

May you keep yours a long, long time.

Best Regards,

Tom
