Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Whiskey Cove
This was my first "uninstructed" dive site and was chosen specifically for the diversity of life and terrain as well as the relative safety of this location. Low current, low waves, and well documented (call "Langley Diving" for a fantastic orientation map). It has since become my "home field" and is an excellent choice for an easy access, easy dive with plenty to see in a (relatively) controlled environment. Also, an excellent location for practicing skills and photgraphy/videography.
Access to dive site is about 1 km north Belcarra Park in Port Moody. Parking is limited to 3 or 4 vehicles and access is limited to daylight hours unless special permission is granted. About 100 meters of gently sloping, forested, marked trail from parking to entry point. Wall dives to both North and South of the Cove (under the privately owned docks) reveals much wildlife. The middle of the bay is about 60 - 100 ft and bottomed by sandy floor and sea grass. Nice whips as you get deeper and the October Jellyfish Bloom is spectacular for Moon Jellies.
