About this site
The Macdonald Bridge dive site sits in Halifax Harbour, Nova Scotia, near the base of the Angus L. Macdonald Bridge connecting Halifax and Dartmouth. It reaches a maximum depth of about 24.4 metres and is considered an advanced dive. A single source reports strong current between the bridge tower and the surrounding area, a silty bottom that reduces visibility when stirred up, and broken glass on the beach entry. That same source lists lobster among the marine life encountered here.
