Dive planning for Marrowstone Point
Site Briefing
Marrowstone Point is a shore dive at the south tip of Marrowstone Island in North Puget Sound .
Access: Scout the entry area with our 360° Street View .
Marine life: Commonly seen: wolf eel and sea star.
Conditions: The site faces south, so south winds tend to build chop at the entry. Given its location, this area can get a roaring amount of current and must only be dived on the calmest of days, preferably with a boat.
⚠️ Safety & accuracy
Before diving at Marrowstone Point, always check the site-specific wind/wave forecast, tide/currents, and recent reports (latest: Oct 16, 2022)! Reminder: Winds (even offshore winds) can impact slack time.
Briefings may be out of date or have inaccuracies. Dive within your training and experience. The first time diving a site, join someone familiar with the site and/or start on a mild day.
