Hello fellow east coast divers,
I will be meeting up with my girlfriend in Halifax next week and we plan to drive out in the country for a couple of days and discover Nova Scotia and its great outdoors and oceanside a bit while doing some nice dives. We like Wreck diving a lot (did a few in the Thousand Islands - Lake Ontario area), and also any marine life makes us happy (we love Les Escoumins and Percé).
We have been reading around and are torn between driving west around Lunenberg, to do the Saguenay and other wrecks (they seem to abound in that area) or moving up East to Cape Breton Island (Port Hawkesbury, West Bay?) and do the Arrow and other dives...
Any recommendations would be appreciated, dive sites, dive operators (we'll need to rent, I can't bring everything on the plane) or must-see sites (on the ground too!) and even accommodations (something nice and simple, B&B or such).
Thanks for any input,
Max
