ScubaJess and I went to Sekiu and Salt Creek last weekend.
Sekiu:
Poor vis (~10ft) but a great dive! Saw a manacled sculpin, stalked jellies, a GPO, fish eating anemones, a pregnant skeleton shrimp, two mosshead warbonnets.. tons of invertebrates and color! We saw a huge field of Vancouver tube worms with brooding anemones growing on them at about 30 ft that I've never seen before (need to go back and take pics). Saw the largest starry founder I've ever seen as well. Surprisingly parking wasn't bad despite being in the rush of salmon season.
Salt Creek:
Visibility: A hazy 15 feet. Fantastic dive! The kelp is looking great. Really nice school of bait fish. Red sausage jellies, huge fish eating anemones, all kinds of nudies, nice sea stars, tons of urchins, baby tube snouts, juvie kelp Greenlings, 1 small ling cod. Zero swell or waves, was really nice. We looked for the rock greenlings, but there was so much kelp we couldn't find either of their typical locations.
Great day, can't wait to go back!

Re: Sekiu and Salt Creek
It was such a fun trip to Sekiu and Salt Creek!!! I was so excited when we had a tiny bit of rain.. I wish it was more. Perfect temp over there.
I was so happy to see the stalked jellyfish and the hugest flounder I've ever seen. I didn't have my camera so I got to practice some wide angle action. Thanks to YE for being my dive model
Here are a few of my snaps!!!
