Rockfish Divers

Rockfish Divers is the only dive shop in BC where you can find accommodations, a dive shop, pool, classroom and dive boat all at the same location! Whether you are local, or planning a visit, Rockfish Divers has what you need – all in one place!

We teach our courses from our boat, sell our equipment off the dock, let you have a dip in the jacuzzi after a dive and follow it up with a burger at the pub.

Once you’re here, we can do the rest!

Our Boat

The Loup de Mer* is a custom built 30 foot aluminum boat that is fast, quiet, reliable and able to access remote dive sites easily. The vessel provides an ideal stable platform for gearing up and the dive bench allows up to eight divers to comfortably store, don and remove their gear. The cabin is heated for comfortable surface intervals and has a marine head (toilet) with a holding tank. The boat is Transport Canada Marine Safety Certified and has all the standard safety equipment including emergency oxygen.
