Tingley Rock
Why dive here
With 58+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, blue whales, humpback whales, orcas and seals & sea lions - Tingley Rock offers some of Alaska's richest pinnacle diving. Water ranges 5-15°C, warmest July, August, September.
Tingley Rock gives you a solid taste of Alaskan diving, even if it's not the most dramatic spot on the map. We’ve found it’s usually a relaxed dive over rocky slopes, with visibility often hovering around 10-15 meters on a good day. Keep your eyes peeled for those massive sunflower stars making their way across the rock and, if you’re lucky, a big skate settled on the seafloor. It's a nice easy dive, probably best for those looking to tick off an Alaskan dive without battling strong currents or deep depths.
