Here I am on the wreck of the "City of Vienna", back in August 2006 (stolen from one of my buddies). -André in Fredericton

Merci beaucoup! :beerchug: -André @ Fredericton

I'm actually in New Brunswick, but I frequently visit Nova Scotia during the summer. -André in Fredericton

Here are some links that may help you make some contacts in the Halifax area. For dive shops, you can contact Torpedo Rays and Divers World. Also, if you want a good idea of the kind of wreck diving that can be done around Halifax, you may want to check Skipper Dave's Charters. Although the...

OK, I'll try to be helpful. In terms of diving, I know that members of the Moncton Dive Club dive frequently in various spots along the shores of Northumberland Strait. As well, you'll be within a few hours of driving to wreck diving in the Halifax area or wall dives in Deer Island, in the...

I started a new thread ("Diving in New Brunswick") to answer your question. -AG

I have to say that I'm very ignorant about diving in the Saint John River. As I mentionned in another thread, I do most of my diving in the Bay of Fundy. I strongly recommend Deer Island Point. You need to coordinate your diving there according to the tide tables, as there's a lot of current...

Yeah, Fredericton is a good place where to live. I dive mostly in the Bay of Fundy area, especially Deer Island and Beaver Harbour. Did check Wallace Cove (near Blacks Harbour) and Herring Cove (Campobello Island). This summer, I did a few wreck diving trips in the Halifax area. I did a few...

Looks promising. Keep going! :-) -André in Fredericton

I know it's not much help, but the only infos I have about diving in PEI is a link to Black Dolphin Diving, in Charlottetown. I know it's not in PEI, but Moncton has a fairly active dive club, the Moncton Dive Club. They organize dive outings in the Northumberland Strait area and scallop...

Awesome! Thanks so much! Like I said before, it's really nice to finally get to have some first hand infos from someone who's from the Western Counties area of Nova Scotia. -André in Fredericton

Please keep us posted about your finds. My buddies and I are always looking for new areas to visit. I really like Halifax and Cape Breton, but I also think it's nice to know that there is a diving community in the Yarmouth area. Are there many dive shops/clubs in your area? The only links I...

I live in New Brunswick and do the occasional diving trip to the halifax/Lunenburg area, but I've always been curious about the Western Counties. What are dive sites like in your area? Do you have a lot of wrecks or is it mostly shore diving? -André in Fredericton

The only information I have about diving in PEI is a link for Black Dolphin Diving, in Charlottetown. -André in Fredericton

Quite a few people from New Brunswick on ScubaBoard. I myself am from the Acadian Peninsula (Caraquet) but now live in Fredericton. -André

I have nothing to add to Naiya's post, except to say that I wish I had written it myself. :05: My only contribution to this thread is to conclude that diving in the Bay of Fundy can be very challenging. However, if you are willing to seek local knowledge and if your dives are carefully...

I checked my personal copy of The Combined Atlantic Dive Guide, and here's what I found for the Northumberland Strait area. Wreck of Hulton, Portage Island, Miramichi Bay Wreck of Comet, Fox Island, Miramichi Bay Wreck of Dwina, Richibucto River, Rexton Like I said in my previous post...

Salut Sylvain, There's not really a website that provides information on dive sites in New Brunswick. I know that most divers living in southwestern NB, including me, go to Deer Island on a regular basis. I know the Moncton Dive Club also does some dives in the Northumberland Strait, while Club...

Since you'll be based in Fredericton, you may want to check the NB Divers listserv. Many members live in the Fredericton area and go diving to Deer Island almost every weekend. Deer Island is not exactly a beginner dive site, but it can be managed depending on your experience level and if you...
