 Additional Information

English (Translate this text in English): The golden sand beach is flanked on the south side by shale ridges running out to sea with kelp, seaweeds and lots of invertebrate marine life. The north side is contained by the long breakwater for the Halifax Container Peer. Divers shouldn't go past the breakwater, as large ships pass by. This still gives a huge area for diving. The central area of the dive site grads down to silt with some eelgrass beds. But the nicest diving is on the flanks. The shale is in bedding planes, like a layer cake making lots of nooks and crannies for critters to hide in. And the breakwater is a very steep slope composed of large boulders and some small rock all being taken over by the sealife!
