Dive

As a diver you are weightless and can move in all directions. You approach the freedom of a bird as you move in three dimensions in a fluid environment.

An encounter with the large, placid wolf eel is a highlight of a Pender Harbour dive.

Dive Pender Harbour

Always use caution when diving.

You know the rules… always have a buddy.

Temperature and Visibility

The mean temperature below 10 metres is about 9° C, summer and winter. Near the surface, in summer, the temperature may exceed 20° C but rarely drops below 7° C in winter.

15-25 metres is usual, and up to 40 metres during the colder periods of the year. Visibility is occasionally obscured by algal blooms in summer, especially in small, shallow bays.
