My crew and I are looking to do a minor production regarding the greenland shark. We know that they frequent the area around Baie Comeau, Baie St. Pancrace, and the Sagueny River. We do not have information regarding exact locations, depths, time of year, costs for boat use etc. Does anyone here have any information?

Website hasn't been updated in 2 years...

My dive buddy has been a few times to Baie-Comeau and got to meet them jolly greenland sharks during one of these trips.

Talk to divers and dive shop staff. It might be best to travel within a week they've been spotted. No one can garantee a shark sighting though...

AFAIK Jeffrey Gallant is the one you should ask about greenland sharks.

EDIT : oops... just realized you're from CT.

It's a dive shop in Quebec City. They organize frequent diving trips around Quebec and Ontario and will go to Baie-Comeau in August. These young folks might be able to accomodate you :)
