Diving in Barkley Sound is excellent thanks to the rich and diverse marine life, numerous reefs and up to 60 old shipwrecks in the area. This area has been called the Graveyard of the Pacific because many navigators from days past would mistake Barkley Sound for the Juan de Fuca Strait, ending up on the many reefs and islands that dot the Sound. In 1972 the Vanlene sank off the east side of Austin Island with a cargo of 300 Japanese cars.
Shore dwelling wildlife in Barkley Sound includes minks, martens, river otters and raccoons, and marine life includes killer whales and grey whales, porpoises, basking sharks, harbour seals, California and Steller's sea lions and six-gill sharks in the shallower depths between July and September. Columbian black-tail deer inhabit the forest and hundreds of seabird species nest in the sound. The birdlife increases dramatically during spring and fall, as migrating flocks descend on the sound en route to their distant feeding and breeding grounds. Barkley Sound is endowed with one of the highest concentrations of bald eagles in North America, with large, sturdy nests built aloft towering evergreen trees.
