Mukilteo T-Dock

A semi-interesting dive.  By swimming west off of wharf, there are sporadically placed piles of rocks, tires, and other debris.  Wildlife is located around these piles.  This dive site can also me combined with 100 foot rock.  Depth is 15 feet at west side of wharf and becomes very deep as you swim west.  Bottom is sandy and moderately sloping.  There is a small kelp forest that grows in the summer off of the parts of the wharf that have fallen into the water.   
This wharf closed in mid 90's.  You can swim under it though it is shallow and there is little to see.    

Small parking lot east of Wharf,  do not park in front of drive ways.

Meadowdale Wharf is also known as Haine's Wharf.

Meadowdale Wharf

This dive is a large glacial erratic (huge rock deposited by glacier).  It is almost 100 feet at the deepest.  The rock;s dimensions are about 20 feet high and 30 feet long.  Lots of hidden spots for cool animals.  
To get to sight:  from the surface you will see a white buoy (this buoy is south of the warf and can be seen on Google Earth.  Swim to, and descend on this buoy.  Bottom will be roughly 50 feet.  You will notice that you are in a shallow trench, get in the middle of this trench and swim west, the rock will become visible in a few minutes of swimming.     

Park in Small Parking lot near the Warf. 

100 Foot Rock

Fun spot for crabbing and having a little change up. There are restrooms and showers in the parking lot. You want to head out on the North West side of pier with the huge wall.  Swim out, Dive then follow the wall out towards the deeper water. You will then see a bunch of tires located in about 25 to 45 feet of water. You can't miss it. Lots of life and low use make it a fun dive. Nice change up.  Vis will range around 15-20 in January and improves quite a bit around 15-20' plus in depth.

You can park right next to the pier.  

Langley Tire Reef

This is a site you can come back to dozens of times and never see it all.  Set up specifically for divers, you'll find wrecks, bottles, and sea life galore--  but don't even think about bringing anything back with you!  Navigation is relatively easy with the well-placed system of buoys and ropes that lead to many of the underwater sights.

Edmonds Underwater Park

Enter in at the very southern end of the Edmonds Marina Breakwater.  Hit the 40 foot contour and swim north-ish keep at around 40 feet.  Large piles of rocks, logs, and kelp are sporadically placed making for some pretty interesting reefs.  Lots of rockfish, lingcod, and cabezon.  
This is a high current area.  Lots of boats too so carry a dive flag (it's the law) and surface close to shore.  The weakest current at Point Edwards (about where this dive is located) is during max ebb or max flood.

Fort Flagler is great out-of-the-way park for sightseeing, picnicking, and of course diving!  The scenic drive, alone, to the park is worth it for a weekend outing from Seattle.

As usual, dive on a slack tide.
