Would I be over simplifying this by saying?
"COLD" :cold:

Thanks guys im pleasently happy with water at or over 50 so this is good news for me.

Heh, well 50 degrees is probably the surface temp. That area is nourished by deep currents from the Pacific, more like 46 degrees. But that's what feeds the beautiful and incredibly dense sea life.

It may be 50 right at Port Hardy but that's a bit optimistic for where the diving is done. I remember temps being somewhere in the 6-8C range (low to high 40's).

I've been there three times, and temperatures have been between 43 and 45.

Not sure if any one cares but i had 52* all week last week

That's almost too warm.

I wouldn't count on any warmer than 48 in the late summer. TSandM is right mid 40's is more realistic. Definitely drysuit diving for comfort. It's so beautiful you don't want to come up.
