Sucia is a diver’s paradise of rock walls, protruding ledges, reef systems and nearby islands to enjoy. The north side of the island offers at least 2 great wall dives; under Lawson Bluff and off Ewing Island at the boulder-strewn walls and kelp forests to enjoy large schools of rockfish, (including rare tiger rockfish), kelp greenlings, lingcod, many varieties of nudibranchs, scallops, starfish, barnacles and much more. Visibility in the bays can be poor, beware of the boat traffic and fishing gear.
