About this site
Bear Cove sits along the Nova Scotia coast near Halifax, on the Atlantic side of the province. The site reaches a maximum depth of about 10.6 metres and is considered suitable for beginners. A single source reports lobster among the marine life, and notes hazards including boat traffic, fishing buoys, lobster traps, rocks, and surge, so divers should stay alert to surface traffic and gear in the water even at this shallow depth.
