Post by YellowEye »

Does anybody know how late the park which provides diving access to edmonds oil dock is open?

Considering a night dive there soon, maybe thursday?

I don't believe there is a closing time. It's not a state park and the parking area is literally the side of the road.

This is an outstanding night dive. Kirbycook and I did it a few weeks ago and it was just killer. Tons of life. I've never seen so many moonsnails in one place; literally dozens of them out on the hunt.

We took our time and surface swam clear out to the north side of the "T". It was great to lay back and look up at the stars. We dropped down the I-Beams to about 50 FSW. If you've got the time, it's worth saving your air and finning it all the way out there.

Have fun! \:D/
