NB Diving???

Hi there.

I was born and raised in NB and on a reent trip I tried to find a dive charter on the net and was unsuccessful.

Is there diving in NB? Where, Who, What to see?

I would love to dive down home next time I am there.

My family is mostly near Saint John and I went to HS in St. George......

There is a guy I went to highschool with who was going into urchin farming on Deer Island....... but we lost touch.... supposed to have been takin a comercial course to operate a vacume for the little buggers.......

anyways I just thought I would ask. Even when I went to PEI and went to a dive shop they told me that the diving was no that good.... talk about counter productive......

The dive opps are excellent in the Bay of Fundy. There are a few dive shops you can check with. I'm sure there are more but maybe others can respond!

There are a number of places to dive Nayai gave you a list of dive shops you can arrange dives through them. I Live in Fredericton, and have been diving on Deer Island. Deer Island point has lots of walls, and a very nice drift dive. There is also Blacks Harbour,Beaver Harbor, Tommies Cove<New River Beach>, a few lakes but they are dark, and Saint John River if your crazy. There are a few places to Dive on PEI too bottle dives and a couple wrecks but you'll need access to a boat. St. Andrews had also a few nice places check with the Navey Island Co. Charters with them are $55.00 I think.. most places you need boat access.... anywho good luck. But if your in NB , Saint john or Fredericton, drop me an message on here and we could hook up and dive with a few other local divers.. if you want

will let you know if I am in the neighbourhood.... my mother is living in Coles island right now...


not sure if I will get down this summer or not. Sister is graduating so I will try.

depends on the job sit....

Thanks for the info.
