Until we have a confirmed update\, please bring extra cylinders or plan to hit up YSS for your tank fills. I’ll keep this page updated as soon as details change!\nResort Amenities: Please note that resort amenities are currently limited while Shawn and Diana are away and the property continues its mid-remodel updates. Plan accordingly for your surface intervals and meals.\n\nConditions & What to Bring\n\nConditions: Expect the classic\, crisp Hood Canal jade pulse—serene\, beautiful\, and teeming with Pacific Northwest marine life.\nExposure Gear: Water temperatures will be brisk this time of year\, so make sure to bring appropriate thermal protection (drysuits or thick wetsuits\, hoods\, and gloves) to stay comfortable on those longer or deeper fun dives.\nWhat You Might See: Keep an eye out for vibrant sea life nestled along the wrecks\, unique structure in the park\, and the incredible visibility and tranquility that makes the Hood Canal the cradle of Pacific Northwest diving.\n\nRSVP Tickets (Free)\nPlease reserve your free ticket below so we can keep track of headcount for the week!
