The Boeing Creek Reef is an artificial reef created by the WDFW for Rockfish restoration. The reef is made of boulders and concrete slabs that were dropped in on a steep sandy slope at depths ranging from 40-75 ft deep in a north-south direction which parallels the shoreline. Safety stops can be completed by moving up the slope toward the shore.
The piles have become home to several species of rockfish, greenling and lingcod, sculpin and perch as well as a host of invertebrates. Scallops, nudibranchs, chitons, sponges, urchins, sea stars and cucumbers dot the reef while octopus lurk within the dark depressions. Use a dive light to explore the crevices. Divers will also find crab and flat fish like flounder and sole in the sandy areas between the piles of debris.
