Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Spring Bay
Spring Bay is a very easy dive for beginners, but can become quite difficult if you venture too far out. Although mostly protected from the current that plagues Ten Mile Point, the closer you get to Ten Mile, the more you will feel the current. So, stay in the general area of Spring Bay, and swim into any current you encounter.
Our best advice is to get a map of Victoria once you arrive, and locate the general area of the point in the Cadboro Bay district. Find Tudor Ave which runs the length of the small peninsula, and head Southeast. Tudor will eventually bend to the left; continue to the parking lot at the end of the road.

I think Spring bay is pretty good, however always go the left side on a slightly windy day. If ten mile point is not dive able this place is a great alternative, however I once made the mistake to go right towards ten mile point even though it was bad weather. Terrible vis, few fish, lots of plankton was the result. Go left! it's usually better when ten mile point is not. I however recommend the right side for a calm day as a second dive or first dive before ten mile.
