This footage was captured over four dives at Orlebar Point, Gabriola Island, British Columbia—two in August and two in January. Orlebar Point is a spectacular cold-water dive featuring a deep wall covered in fields of plumose anemones, colorful crimson anemones, boot sponges, cloud sponges, and plenty of rockfish. If you're lucky, you might even get a visit from curious sea lions, which make the experience even more unforgettable!

 

This dive is definitely for advanced divers, as the area can experience strong currents if the tides aren’t perfectly timed. However, with proper planning, it's a short swim out to the wall, where it dramatically drops into the depths, creating an awe-inspiring underwater landscape. The diversity of marine life here is incredible, making it a must-dive location for anyone exploring British Columbia’s coast.
