Diving Porteau Cove - Sea Dragon and our guide Darrin were absolutely amazing! Can't recommend either enough! Sea dragon called ahead of time after reviewing our dive experience and made recommendations that greatly enhanced our enjoyment of the dive. Darrin was knowledgeable not only of diving, but also of the local area. He showed us how to track and find giant pacific octopus, checking off a lifetime goal for me and my partner while also making us feel pretty cool. Travelers would be hard pressed to find a better experience in the area!

Great intro to coldwater diving, beautiful dives - Kevin and Brian are fantastic, super friendly place, especially if you’re not used to Coldwater diving they went above and beyond to make sure it was comfortable. The diet is fantastic, lots of giant enemies, starfish, octopus, and Kevin and Brian are fantastic, super friendly place, especially if you’re not used to Coldwater diving they went above and beyond to make sure it was comfortable.

We did one rock bed with a great view of octopus and giant anemones. and the second dive was a wall dive that looked like the mountains were just sinking into the bay, Light current and tons of rockfish and stars and other little critters on the underwater wall. I can’t say enough, how nice the boat was, the staff friendly, and generally expert knowledge of the area that really made visiting great. Strong recommend.

Safe, Friendly and FUN Dive Charter! - This was my first time to Horseshoe Bay for scuba diving. Sea Dragon came highly recommended by my dive buddies so I booked two days of diving. Both times, the crew and Dive Master were very professional and ensured that the briefing was understood. Refreshments were offered during our surface interval and the ride there and back was simply amazing! I will definitely book with them again when I return!

Great Diving In B.C. - Loved getting to dive to the Annapolis. Jade, our divemaster, was really easygoing, and also appropriately cautious. Would be happy to dive with her again. Kevin seemed to be running things on the boat and he was terrific helping to get me up to speed after a long absence from diving (My last dive was pre-Covid). Definitely recommend this place (especially for experienced divers) and I hope to go back soon.

How can something be great and equally disappointing at the same time? - The review is average for a very specific reason- and it may not apply to most. But it might apply to some of you so here we go. I've been here a few times for trips and just gear rentals and overall the experience has been pretty good. People are nice enough, knowledgeable and accommodating. Prices are what they are- the rental equipment is great quality... If you want to dive around Howe Sound and don't care where you're going then no question this is probably the outfit you will be happy with. Skippers and dive masters I've had- no complaints at all. Top tier all. Without getting into the whole story if you want to go to a specific place then make sure the boat is going to go to the place before you commit to paying and getting on the boat. I've been out with them a couple times now and both times you're pretty much on the boat and leaving when there's a poll to determine where you're going. There's pretty much no going back. Most people are just happy to be diving the west coast and that's great. You'll be pleased- the skippers and dive masters know the sites, are professional and ready to help you. But for those of you looking to go to specific locations... it's pretty disappointing. Actually- it's really disappointing. The last two times I've gone out I asked specifically for one place and the first time around I got told on the phone "Oh yeah try Thursday or Saturday." Showed up Saturday "Oh no, we just went there yesterday (Friday). We're going to this other place today." Last time it was basically just the skipper looking at a group of local regulars "I imagine you don't want to go to THIS place today?" (the place I wanted to go). "NO!" so we went to look at something else. It was soul crushing (so I'm probably making a bigger deal out of it than I should). And I understand it probably just needs to be like this to make it profitable... but if you want a SPECIFIC site you need to know this is what to expect before you've paid and you're on the boat leaving dock with no option to opt out.
