潜水点介绍

Fox Island is 8 miles out from Seward. The easiest accessible wreck in South central Alaska is located on the leeward side of the island, where it is protected from wind and rough seas. At low tide, the superstructure is just several feet below the surface, while the bottom rests in about 90 feet of water. There is a spit on what I believe to be the south side of Fox Island. There is a wreck, an old barge, off this spit. The stern of the wreck is in shallow water, very close to the beach. The bow is at about 85 fsw. There is a great big fish taking up his home in the barge - at about 65 feet, there is a big hole, and the fish will stare out at you through that hole. Pretty funny stuff. You can penetrate this wreck if you’re trained to do so - I’m not and have not, but I believe it to be pretty stable. While you are on the wreck, other people can be on the island. Fox Island has the most perfect skipping rocks in the world, and is home to an annual rock skipping contest. There are also some interesting hiking and tide-pooling options. For a really fun time, bring some non-divers with you. Everyone hits the beach, and you can start a little driftwood fire. Then dive the wreck while they hike or skip rocks. During your surface interval, you can sit around the fire and chat. There is a spit on what I believe to be the south side of Fox Island. There is a wreck, an old barge, off this spit.
