Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Fort Flagler Pier
Fort Flagler is great out-of-the-way park for sightseeing, picnicking, and of course diving! The scenic drive, alone, to the park is worth it for a weekend outing from Seattle. For those who brought your Scuba gear, prepare for a fascinating dive. Fish, macro life, plume worms and anemones have engulfed the pilings that march far out into the Admiralty Inlet. As usual, dive on a slack tide.
From Seattle, take the Edmonds/Kingston ferry to 104. Continue North through Port Gamble and over the Hood Canal Bridge. In about 5.5 miles, turn right onto 19. After 11.5 miles, turn right again onto 116 and head North to the end of the road, in about 10 miles. You'll then be at the entrance of the park.

I just spent some time around the pier structure. I didn't know there was a reef out there. I might go back to find it sometime. The current was moving when I was there so I just kept it shallow and hung out with the fish in the pier. Very colorful life there. Schools of mini flounder shimmer away from you through the sand on exit.
