Just finished Puget Sound.

Finished my last two open water dives yesterday off Whidbey Island in Puget Sound! Water temp was 50*F, visibility was 15 ft. at best, and it was fantastic!

We took two shore dives along a jetty, having to work through a kelp bed (full of juv. needlefish) to get to the main part of the wall. It was completely covered with Metridium anemones, forming a pretty surreal looking white-plumed wall that just ascended up into green haze. Saw plenty of painted greenlings and lingcod, and during the second dive found a juv. Giant Pacific octopus.

I LOVE IT!
