Scuba Diving in British Columbia, Canada

Dive Site: Hunt Rock

Location: Port Hardy

Hunt Rock Dive site near Port Hardy - I don’t know what’s in the water up here (besides lots of great nutrients and oxygen from the currents) but everything is SO big!
This dive site is comprised of two pinnacles that rise from the ocean floor some 75 meters (240 feet) below, to within about 8 meters (25 feet) of the surface, which is teeming with life among the kelp and other seaweed.

Dropping below the surface kelp you will see marine life that is similar to Browning Wall, except it will be bigger. You can also expect to see some very large rockfish, and if you are lucky, you will probably get to meet Hunter and Huntress, the local mated wolf eels who live here and are very comfortable with divers. If you look carefully, you will find other wolf eel dens and even an octopus den or two.
