Brackett's Landing and the Underwater Park is located immediately next to the Edmonds terminal of the Kingston ferry. Take I-5 to Edmonds and follow the signs towards the ferry. Don't get in the ferry lanes. Turn left towards the ferry at the intersection at the front of the ferry lane. Turn right into the Brackett's landing parking lot immediately across the railroad tracks.

The Park, home of Washington's most popular underwater park, includes more than 27 acres of tide and bottom lands, half of which are features and trails specifically designed for divers. The Underwater Park provides convenient parking, restrooms, a dry changing area, as well as a shower and foot-wash station. Air can be purchased several blocks south of the Park at Edmonds Underwater Sports.

Divers can explore a series of man-made reef structures interspersed with sunken vessels, creating an extensive artificial habitat for a wide variety of marine life. All of which can be explored by divers following an extensive network of guide ropes anchored to the bottom. There are also several sunken boats and an old dry-dock to explore.
