Hunt Rock - Another Great Port Hardy Dive Site
What I do know is that this is another one of the best and most popular dive sites around. As with other dives in the Port Hardy area, there can be strong currents in this area so plan to dive at slack with an experienced Hunt Rock local dive operator and group.
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.

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.
If you look carefully, you will find other wolf eel dens and even an octopus den or two.
Please plan your dive and dive your plan, and remember to return here and submit your dive review for other divers to read.
