About this site
Tyee Cove sits along the Vancouver Island shoreline near Campbell River, British Columbia, in the waters of the Discovery Passage area known for strong tidal currents. It is a shore dive reaching a maximum depth of around 22.9 metres and is rated a beginner site. Divers have reported nudibranchs and octopus here. Access involves a steep trail down to the water, and conditions can include boat traffic overhead, limited visibility in the deeper sections, and stronger currents during tidal changes, so timing an entry around slack tide is worth keeping in mind.
