Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Rosario Beach
Rosario is an excellent beach park with all the facilities. Take two tanks with you and plan to spend the day. Before, between or after dives, take time to explore the surrounding Deception Pass State Park-- one of the finest in the Northwest.
About 50 miles North of Seattle, just South of Anacortes. About a half a mile North of Deception Pass, head West on Rosario road to the park entrance.

Please,please,please - check your currents. This dive can be many things. A snorkeler can enjoy the reef around the opening of the bay. A beginning or intermediate diver can enjoy the region around the west end of the head. Advanced divers who are willing to swim can experience the wall off the west end of Northwest Island. What you will see depends greatly on the weather. The western exposure causes severe storm damage. Hit it when the conditions are right and you can see anything that exists in Northwest waters. My last time through there on my boat I saw harbor seals, Dall's porpoise, and a pod of Orca.
