Why dive here
With 35+ marine species recorded in the area - including humpback whales, orcas and seals & sea lions - Redondo Beach offers some of Pacific Northwest's richest diving. Water ranges 7-17°C, warmest July, August, September.
Redondo Beach offers a straightforward shore dive, popular for training and those looking for a relaxed paddle around. You'll likely spot sculpins, rockfish, and maybe a nudibranch or two clinging to the rocks and sparse growth. It’s an easy entry, making it a good choice for newer divers or for shaking the rust off after a long surface interval. Just watch the tides; a low tide entry can mean a longer walk over the cobbles.
Safety Notes
Cold water this month (avg 11°C). Drysuit or thick wetsuit (7mm+) recommended.
