Dive Buddy List More info to come Wreck Dives (No Entry) Nova Scotia boasts more wrecks than any other location in the North Atlantic, because of it's jagged rock coastline and fog. We often explore for old wrecks in various locations around South West Nova Scotia. Things to be found are bottles, anchors, cannons and various other items. Drift Dives (Passage) Imagine skimming along the bottom, travelling approximately 7-8 knots. This would be our drift dives, for experienced divers. Scallop Dives We dive for the world famous Digby scallops. Some areas are littered with scallops, and with a scallop licence from fisheries and Oceans Canada ($11.50 CDN), you can take home 100 scallops. Our scallops have an average of 10-15/lb. While scallop diving you may see lobsters, fish, starfish, rock crabs and various other sea life. Night Dives The night dives provide the diver to admire the vast array of colours on the ocean bottom. Sea amenomes, lobsters, crabs, etc..., the ocean bottom comes alive at night. Seal Dives We visit a friendly colony of seals once in a while to admire their underwater ballet. The seals will thrill the expert diver as well as the novice diver. |
