I have details now! All prices are in Canadian $
Anyone who wants to come from elsewhere or, for other reasons, wants to arrange their own flights is welcome! However I will still require $50 to cover the airfare deposit that I have already paid to the airline. The standalone cost of the package at OceanQuest would then be $858.33, taxes included. That's basically paying for the accommodations and diving for free, other than equipment you might want or need to rent. With this arrangement in place we can open it up to more non-diver friends or family.
In the fall of 1942 U-boats torpedoed four iron ore freighters anchored at Bell Island, Newfoundland. The wrecks sit upright and nearly intact in 100 to 150 FSW, with artillery still on their decks and alive with sea life. Conception Bay also has shore-dive sites and the possibility of iceberg and whale encounters. The town of Conception Bay South, on the eastern shore of the bay, is a short drive from many places of interest including St. John’s, North America’s oldest city. From AOW to trimix divers there’s something for everyone. Bubble watchers are welcome! Spaces are limited.
