Comments On business to Halifax, Nova Scotia area. I made two drysuit dives. One a morning dive with a local diver that Nautilus Divers was able to find for me, the other an organized diveshop evening dive with Torpedo Rays Scuba in Dartmouth.

The morning dive was to Paddy's Head, St. Margaret's Bay noth of Peggy's Cove. Great viz, lots of colour in the kelp, a school of young pollock, crabs, moon snails. Lots of things to see, very relaxed dive. Dive op was very helpful in getting me into the water on my day off.

The evening dive was to Terence Bay, south of Halifax. Saw my first Wolf Eel in nine years of diving. Very cool. Torpedo Rays was very professional, a larger shop, tech oriented as well as recreational. A fun group dive. www.torpedorays.com
