Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Porteau Cove
Porteau Cove should be renamed Diver's Paradise! The park system went all out to make this an appealing marine park for all levels of divers. Easy entry, marine life, marked wrecks, and a stair-side shower for your return make this site a two-tanker!
Heading North from Horseshoe Bay, after about 23km, you'll see the park on your left.

Awesome experience! First time diving currently taking my OWC at sea with sky ocean sports (great people). Quite the experience being down there and seeing all the different life. The visibility was horrible until you got past the thermocline then it was like 20 ft. Went to the tire reef and some cement pipes. Saw lots of star fish of different sizes and all kinds of crabs. Lots of sea cucumbers, lots of dead brittle stars. The instructor said that's weird. Lots of nudibranch eggs, as well.
