Diving in the Columbia River offers a unique experience. Divers can drift with the current and have a chance to encounter the massive, prehistoric-looking white sturgeon. The river is also home to a number of historical shipwrecks.
Features
A challenging river dive with strong currents and often limited visibility. The main attraction is the chance to see giant white sturgeon, which can grow to several meters long. A dive for very experienced divers only.
