Beach Access to Sund Rock Marine Preserve


We offer exclusive walk-in shore access to the Sund Rock Marine Preserve, and can control the number of shore divers in the Preserve at any given time. Beach fees include an on-site Port-a-Potty and hot showers at the Rest-a-While Boathouse.

Giant Octopus

Easy entry and lack of current at the site make this an ideal place for classes. Space fills up fast on weekends, so please check with us in advance before planning to use this shore access.

Marine conservation at Sund Rock has led to abundant sea life. Come see the wealth of rockfish, lingcod, octopus and wolf eels, as well as nudibranchs, sponges, anemones, shrimp, crabs and sea stars. Many of these species also lay their eggs in the Preserve. Remember the only shooting and collecting allowed is with a camera, and we'll be happy to set you up with a rental camera and strobe.

Be sure to e-mail us or phone us at 360-877-6818 to reserve beach space on a weekend.
