A WDFW conservation area on Hood Canal right off Highway 101, just over three miles north of Hoodsport and a short drive from Sund Rock. A roughly 200-yard-long rock wall starts around 40 ft and drops to 50-60 ft depending on tide, riddled with cracks and dens that house giant Pacific octopus and wolf eels. Currents are mild, making it a relaxed wall dive, but no hunting or gathering of any kind is permitted.
