Indian Arm shore dive with easy entry, currents, and crabs.
Indian Arm shore dive with easy entry, currents, and crabs.
Grey Rocks is a shore-access Indian Arm dive site with a short walk-in, a small parking area, and a split profile that lets you stay shallow by the shore or move toward the island for more structure. It is best treated as a tide-aware local dive rather than a casual beach stroll, because the far side can run hard on current and boat traffic is part of the picture. The site suits divers who want easy entry, crabs and small life, and a calm-plan day that still offers a bit of variety.
