Join East Coast Scuba & Watersports on Nov 11 for an underwater wreathing laying ceremony on a wreck that saw action during the world wars.

We are proud to have started and kept this powerful tribute to those who lost their lives at sea during war times. Divers will descend on the wreck with a biodegradable wreath and short photo opt before exploring the wreck. As a thank you and in memory for those who fought for our freedom. To reserve your spot please email the shop at [email protected]

Wow! What a night! Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate Diversnight!

It was a beautiful evening with great friends, which is exactly what this dive is all about. Camaraderie and cake.

This was our third year participating in the international event which started in 2005 in Norway. Stay tuned for final numbers 👀

Saturday Sept 21 we hosted our Annual Project Aware event during Aware Week. What a fantastic turn out of divers, snorkelers and a kayaker! Over 24 volunteers. It seems the amount of trash is decreasing over the years: 5 tires, 300 lobster bands, dozen glass bottles and such. Photos by Tracy, John Bowser and Beverley White

We recently had two VIPs from Ontario drop by the shop, Matt and Sammy from Dan’s Dive Shop. It very quickly became a “tail” of two dive shop pups. Kaia enjoyed showing Sammy her dive shop and the two had a blast. It was great to catch up with Matt and hear about all the cave diving trips and get an update on his shops activities!
