About this site
Snake Island Wall lies in the Nanoose Bay area of the Strait of Georgia, off Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. This stretch of coast near Nanaimo is a known base for cold-water diving along the Strait's rocky shorelines and island margins. The wall itself drops to a maximum depth of around 183 metres, and the site is rated technical, putting the deeper sections well beyond recreational limits.
