Car Rental Options In British ColumbiaBooking a car rental in area of the major dive centers of British Columbiais simple. All of the major International rental agencies are located at the main airports, with car pick-up and drop-off being on-site rather than a shuttle bus drive away. Major and independent rental offices can also be found in or near hotels in the major dive areas and communities of British Columbia. Book ahead to ensure you have a large enough car, van or SUV to carry your extra scuba diving equipment. If you are like me, you’ll want to make commuting to your dive sites quicker and easier by asking for a built-in GPS system as well. If you are diving in the fall, winter or spring months and will be driving between the Okanagan and the west coast, or between Victoria and Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, I also suggest asking for snow tires. The mountain passes between these areas can sometimes be unpredictable. Arranging for a car can easily be comparison priced and booked on-line through services such as expedia.ca or travelocity.com, or through a local travel agent.
