Mukilteo Oil Dock

Description

The Mukilteo Oil dock is one of the best locations for crabbing in the Puget Sound area. In addition to crabbing, you will find an the underside of the Oil dock filled with life. Be prepared for a long walk before you reach the entry point, though it's worth the effort. When you reach the water you will find a moderate surface swim before you reach the dock. Decend and be sure to take note of all abundance of crab along the outskirts of the oil dock.

Location

The Mukilteo Oil Dock is located at the small community town of Mukilteo, Washington, just north of the Mukilteo/Whidbey Island Ferry Terminal. It's approximately 30 miles north of Seattle on I-5. Follow I-5 north and take the Mukilteo/Whidbey Island Exit. Follow the highway past Boeing into Mukilteo. Follow the signs to the ferry dock.(be sure not to enter the ferry lanes) all the way down to the T intersection. Take a right at the intersection. Continue until the road bends to the right and take your immediate left. Here you will be heading parallel with a RR track and eventually the road will turn into gravel. At the end of this road you will find a circular pad where you can park and gear up. Walk out along the fence and into the water.
