Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Mukilteo Oil Dock

The Oil Dock is actually the most interesting dive in this area. It is a bit of a hike to get to the entry point, but well worth it just to be able to explore the pilings of this huge structure.<br><br>*** CLOSED TO DIVING ***<br>SEE THE REVIEW OF 6/11/2015 BELOW<br> Take exit 189 off I-5 in Everett, and head West on 526. Then head North on 525. Follow signs to the Mukilteo Ferry. Take a right at the intersection just after you pass of over the railroad tracks. Just past the hotel on your left, turn right, then turn left before you reach the tracks again. Drive North and parallel to the coast, keeping the tracks to your right-- your road will turn to a heavily potted, dirt road. Continue on until you reach the dirt parking area.

I'm a local diver and know this site very well. The entry point is at the Mukilteo T-Docks, which is it's own dive, you must walk, wade, and/or swim the 400yards to the Fuel Docks. This site is known for one thing, Dungeons Crab and some Red Rock Crab. You can limit very quickly early in the season, the fuel dock itself is about half a mile with an average depth of 35'. The slope that run parallel at a 45 degree angle will go from a bottom of 45' to 110'. Muscles line the pilings and large chunks of muscles will drop to the bottom and the crab love them. You will also find some Ling Cod, Rock Fish, and lots of candy shrimp.
