Many locations in Canada, including Ontario, Newfoundland, and British Columbia, are suitable for scuba diving. Such factors are expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period.
In addition, the diving tourism market in Canada places a strong emphasis on eco-tourism and conservation. Diving operators and organizations actively promote sustainable diving practices, support marine conservation initiatives, and raise awareness about environmental issues.
