I am thrilled and so excited to see my beloved Smitty's Cove featured in the paper and being recognized as the best place for shore diving in the Anchorage area. I have spent countless hours and 1860 dives in this cove and love it, it's beautiful critters and all the great artifacts that were left behind by the docks burning and a few sinkings. It is truly a great place to dive and with so few dive operations the best choice. My heart belongs to Jerry, but he won it at Smitty's Cove and I will forever be tied to it's well being and preservation. Thank you all for taking up the cause to protect it that Jerry worked so hard on for over 20 years. Maybe now we can finally protect it and preserve it for future divers.
