Looking back at my circumnavigation of Vancouver Island May 23 – June 1, 2009 So it was about 4:30 pm on Saturday when we arrived on the dock in Steveston for our dive trip that would take us around Vancouver Island. Our trip had been a long time coming as we had to book the […]

Today was an incredible way to end the trip. I saw a giant wolf eel that wouldn’t stay away from my face. It swam out of it’s hole and I wasn’t sure if it was friend or foe. Because I didn’t have any snacks for it, I had to send it on it’s way. I […]

Last Day of Our Scuba Diving Circumnavigation of Vancouver Island

Dive #1 was at West Race Wall at Race Rocks. Dropping the scuba divers off in a 25 knot westerly was a bit of a challenge especially considering that we are not allowed to drop the anchor and stabilize ourselves in the Marine Protected Area. Dive #2 was off the Ogden Point Breakwater with the Nautilus Explorer tied up in the Inner Harbour in front of the Empress Hotel. Wrapped the trip with a great dive on the artificial reef G.B. Church off Portland Island.

Where are all the Sea Lions at Race Rocks??

Our first dive today was at West Race Wall and the scuba diving there equals world famous Browning Wall (which means that it is pretty darn good). My only surprise of the day was the dearth of sea lions basking in the sunshine on the rocks. I’m used to seeing hundreds of animals here. Instead, we saw a total of 5 stellar sea lions and no California sea lions. Not sure what to make of that.

Excellent dive in the ecological reserve at Race Rocks this morning. Divers saw big stellar sea lions, a free-swimming wolf eel at 20 feet and tons of invertebrate life… Anchored at the old leper colony which is kind of cool…
