Breaker Reef
Why dive here
With 58+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, blue whales, humpback whales, orcas and seals & sea lions - Breaker Reef offers some of Alaska's richest reef diving.
Breaker Reef offers a proper Alaskan cold-water experience. We’ve seen healthy stands of soft corals clinging to the rocky substrate, often shrouded in thick kelp forests. Keep an eye out for nudibranchs, rockfish, and the occasional wolf eel poking out from crevices. It’s a site for divers who appreciate the subtle beauty of temperate waters and are comfortable with cooler temperatures and potentially challenging surface conditions.
