Given the miserable weather forecast for this Saturday, the boats clogging the last day of salmon fishing, and the big exchange we've decided to push out the picnic a week to Saturday September 19. We'll still be at the SOUTH JETTY unless we hear the north jetty is finished.

The weather is forecast to be sunny, and there is a minimal exchange all day. High slack is about 845a at 4.69 and low is 4.0 at about 1p, rising to the next high of 5.9 at 7p. It'll be easy to dive about anytime you want.

Let's plan on meeting about 10am and diving before lunch. The club will have lunch fixings. Feel free to bring something to share.

Ed can't make this date so Kim Skinner and I will be hosting. If you're going to join us, drop me a note at [email protected] so I know how much lunch to get.

Hope to see you there!

Port McNeill/Port Hardy
Sun Fun Divers
October 6-10, 2026
5 days, 2-tank dives

The northern tip of Vancouver Island is renowned for its world class temperate diving. Sun Fun Divers dives both Port McNeill and Port Hardy. The club has scheduled 5 days of diving Port McNeill. If the group wishes we can switch some days to Port Hardy at a slight price increase. The boat is a landing craft so dive entry and return is at water level.

Tanks, weights and lunch/snacks provided. Lodging and meals are on your own. Trip minimum is 6 with a max of 8 divers.

Based on 6 divers the cost is $1680 CDN. Current exchange rate is 0.72 US to $1 Canadian. Final cost will be determined by how many divers and USD to CAN exchange rate. A $800 usd deposit is needed. Trip signup is at the shop. Once we have 6 divers, your deposit is returnable; also if trip is canceled.

Questions?? Bruce Hansen 541-207-5877, [email protected].

Dreams of a Scientist : Lessons from the Sea is officially in its first dive shop!! Go check it out at Eugene Skin Divers, and maybe learn about some ways that you could have your own underwater adventure, just like Margo🥰

As a team full of recreational and scientific divers, we are eager to connect with diving communities across the country! We want to give a huge thank you to Eugene Skin Divers for supporting local businesses and science.
If your local dive shops seems like a good place to share marine science, tag them in the comments of DM them to us. We’d love to get our book in their store, and even see if we could initatie some science themed events🔬🦀

Always good to check and think about.

Ensure your safety underwater. Learn how to check your neck seal to prevent dizziness and loss of consciousness while diving.
