Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Edmonds Oil Dock
The Edmonds Oil Dock can offer all the sights of Puget Sound. It's a bit more technical than other dives in the area due to the complications of current, but it's very worthwhile. Go with someone experienced in the area for the first dive.
Just North of Seattle, take Exit 177 off I-5 and head West toward the Edmonds-Kingston Ferry on 104. Just before you find yourself at the Ferry, take a left on Dayton, and then another left onto Admiral Way. Follow this road into Marina Beach.

I've dove this sight 5 times and it's a good dive. Anemones cover the pilings and there are tons of ratfish. There are lots of Dungeness Crabs, Starfish, Greenling, and the occasional Nudibranch. I've done 2 night dives at this location and on one of them I played with a baby octo. You have to watch your depth, as it can creep up on you fast if you head west of the dock. You can easily get down to 120'. The docks are going to be torn down in November, but I hear hopefully that they'll leave the pilings underwater.
