Agate Passage Bridge

Directions

If going taking the bridge onto Bainbridge Island, take the first left after crossing the bridge. If you are on Bainbridge Island, take the last right before crossing the bridge. Either way, you take a small road, that goes under the bridge. Go a little further than under the bridge and you will see a small parking area on the right side, enough room for 2 or 3 vehicles. From the parking area follow the road back the way you came, a little ways after walking under the bridge you will see a trail leading down to the beach.

Description

If you have dove at this site, please add description.

Hazards

This area has very strong currents, Pratt-Johnson says that the currents can get running up to 7.5 knots (6.5 miles per hour). For this reason, this site is often dove as a drift dive. A boat for safety is a good idea.
