Oceans contain habitats as different from one another as rainforests are from deserts. From coastlines to the deepest ocean trenches there lives a vast array of marine life - some rare, some bizarre, some astonishingly beautiful. The Pacific Northwest especially Vancouver Island and the coast of British Columbia is one of the richest and most diverse areas on earth. A guilty pleasure of sorts. It is home to thousands of plants and animals both above and below the shoreline. Visitors are awe struck by the pristine beauty of coastline and mountain ranges.

The images, photography tutorials and diving information found throughout this website is to help promote the education, understanding and conservation of the marine environment and its inhabitants in the Pacific Northwest.
