April 28-29 dives?

[DivePartner1]

I'll be in Seattle late this month and have the opportunity to take some time to dive on a Friday and Saturday.

Can anyone recommend good dive ops or sites? I expect to have a car and be mobile and intend to pack my drysuit.

Alki Cove 2 is always a winner. Lots of life and the vis recently has been supurb. A couple of big GOPS are hanging around and on eggs. Went on 4/2/06 and had a incrediable dive. Did find a dying GOP that day as well... a sad event.

Edmound is a great dive, not too deep, but a bunch of life. There are always a bunch of hooded nudies in the ell grass. If you go, give the ling and cabazones a wide birth. Some are still on egg and can get agressive.

Redondo beech is a great dive as well. No natural formations, but lots of stuff has been set up to attract life. A night dive there will yeald some small red octos and shaggy mouse nudie's.

These 3 sited are easily reachable with a 20-30 minute drive from Seattle. They are shore dive and well worth you time.

Here are a couple of things you could see at alki

My experience level is posted on my profile. Most recent divers were in late December on the Speigel Grove in Florida.

I'll be diving dry and am trying to find time for a quarry dive between now and the end of the month.
