Nova Scotia ocean playground
Is like diving into a living museum beneath the waves. With vast coastline and centuries of maritime history, Nova Scotia is one of the top cold-water wreck diving destinations in the world.

A Rich Maritime Graveyard

Nova Scotia’s waters are scattered with hundreds of shipwrecks, ranging from 18th-century merchant ships to WWI and WWII warships. Many were lost to sudden storms, navigational errors, or the region’s famously rocky coastlines.

Something for Every Diver

No matter your certification level, there’s a wreck for you:

Open Water Divers can explore shallow artificial reefs or shallow wrecks.
Advanced & Technical Divers have access to deeper, more complex wrecks that often remain

Thriving Marine Life

Over time, many wrecks have become artificial reefs, teeming with life. Expect to see:

Wolf fish, lobsters, anemones, and cod
Colorful kelp forests growing on hulls
