Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Salt Water State Park

If you're looking for a relatively easy dive with great facilities and picnic areas, this is it. The smooth entry and sandy bottom takes you straight out to an interesting wreck. A wooden barge was sunk here in the early 70's, and continues to be a refuge to a plethora of marine life. If you are new to shore diving, this is a good spot to get your feet wet! About 10 miles South of Seattle in Des Moines. At Exit 149, take 516 West. In about 2 miles, go South on Marine View Drive. You'll hit the park in about another mile.

Nice park. When I was a kid, there were some cliffs made of sandstone. We know all about sand stone. For instance you could write you name by scratching it with a sharp item. During those times, kids would write things such as 'so and so likes so and so', or a heart-- those types of things. But the main reason I am writing is that those darn cliffs are just the very thin out crops of a ledge you would have to walk on. Hey you were a kid and you saw some one else do it, so you had to try yourself. Scared the life out of me!
