    StandoutDramatic wall topography

    Skyline Wall is a decent wall dive in the Pacific Northwest. You'll drop down and find a good collection of anemones and some decent nudibranchs along the rock face. It’s a solid pick for divers who appreciate the region’s cooler water macro life and don't mind a bit of a current. We’d suggest it for experienced local divers looking for a reliable dive.

    Safety Notes

    Cold water this month (avg 11°C). Drysuit or thick wetsuit (7mm+) recommended.
