Dive site description:
Incredible dive!! Time your visit to tie into the spring or fall Chinook runs. Fall will have more fish than the spring, but either is a good dive. Spend some time in the pool below the waterfall and then leisurely drift down river about 1/4 mile to the gravel ramp to exit. Doff your gear at the top of that ramp and walk back to the parking lot for the car. Return with vehicle to pickup your gear. It is amazing. Debi and I found this site while kayaking one day. We returned the following day with SCUBA gear. We've dived it MANY times since. Never had a bad dive there yet.
Enjoy!!

Directions:
15 miles east of Bridge of the Gods. Turn north on the road just before Drano Lake. Enter the pool under the waterfall just to the left of the fish viewing platform. |
