ladder for easy entry and exit through the transom
door.

are as many as 20 different locations to explore the
underwater world off the nine islands that comprise

composition of marine and aquatic life. An encounter
with the seals off Duck or Boon Islands is a never to
be forgotten experience!

Diving Sites Dive sites
located in and around the islands are such that diving
can be accomplished in most weather and sea
conditions. The sites offer interesting rock
formations including small walls and overhangs. Other
sites offer extensive underwater vegetation including
large kelp beds. As with any cold water diving,
visibility can be limited but due to the location of
these islands offshore, they are rarely inhibited by
the turbid waters found at the mouth of rivers and
closer to the mainland.
In the spring and early summer, the harbor seal
population is quite extensive with divers occasionally
encountering these animals below the surface. As the
islands are well known for their fish population,
divers encounter Bluefish, Stripers, Pollack,
Mackerel, Cod, Wolfish, Ocean Pout, Sculpins, Sea
Ravens, skates, eels and dogfish. In addition to the
fish population there are crustaceans including
lobsters and crabs, a variety of squid, shrimp, sand
dollars, starfish, jellyfish, sea worms, sponges and
sea anemones as well as the mollusk population
including clams, scallops, oysters and snails.
Please check with these dive
shops and clubs for dives scheduled aboard
Seafari.
