Neah Bay 7/19

Post by gutholmj »

I got to go out for my first dive at Neah Bay yesterday. I can only say it was incredible. For anyone that has been, you know what I'm saying and for anyone who has not, go there!

We went out with Aqua Therapy charters. The service on the boat was great and the boat is fast which made the trip all the more enjoyable.

We dove Tatoosh Island, I think we were on the NE side of the island, for the first dive. The second dive was Waadah Island Fingers. Both dives were incredible. The colors were amazing and comparable to a tropical reef. I'm usually more of a critter person than a fish person but the quantity and variety of fish at Waadah was overwhelming. The dive at Waadah was unfortunately way too short. Now I just need to figure out how to get back out to Neah Bay ASAP.

The pics just don't do it justice but here are a few anyway.

We will be out there over Labor day. Any and all are encouraged to attend. There is some shore diving avail, and scooters are a big plus. We need more divers with boats to plan on attending!
