BABY CANDY STRIPE SHRIMP!!! All over the place! Every crimson I checked has at least one. Plus - nudibranchs galore.
I'm curious too! Dive planning / 360 street view keep pointing to California. But this is definitely in the WA sites category!
Sprinkles!!!! 😍🍭 🦐 🍼💗🥳

This site is the south side of Deadman Island, located in San Juan Channel between San Juan Island and Lopez. Super current intensive, but divable on the ebb on minor exchanges. Best on the latter half of the ebb.
