God’s Pocket Marine Park offers some of the best underwater scuba diving on the Pacific Coast and is also well-known as a kayaking destination.
Most diving takes place in nearby Browning Pass, which the late underwater explorer Jacques Cousteau rated as one of the best cold-water diving destinations in the world. Conditions can be difficult, so divers should be experienced and well-equipped.
In addition to diving, the park offers opportunities for fishing, boating and wildlife viewing. Bald eagles and whales are common sights in the park, which protects a seabird breeding colony and Bald eagle habitat.
This undeveloped park includes two main islands, Hurst and Bell, as well as many smaller isles.
