The attraction to this site are the several small vessels that sunk at the marina during a storm in the 90’s. Some are little more than piles of debris while others are still mostly intact. The site begins as a gradual cobble slope which begins to drop off more steeply beyond the intertidal line. Head left toward the marina. The second piling from the end of the first set of pilings you encounter marks a boat that is still in tact in about 25-30’. The last piling to the right of the set of pilings at the south end of the dock marks another couple of boats in varying degrees of decomposition ranging from 30’-40’ deep.
Besides the boats themselves there are plenty of critters to see including rockfish, lingcod, sculpin, painted greenlings, gunnels, crab, etc.
