Why dive here
West Reef lies in a species-rich stretch of Québec, with 44+ marine species recorded in the area.
Look, the "West Reef" in Québec isn't what most divers picture when they hear "reef". We're talking more about rock formations and submerged boulders than classic coral. Visibility can be hit or miss, but when it's good, you’ll find plenty of small crustaceans tucked into crevices and various cold-water fish navigating the rocky landscape. It's a decent spot for local exploration and shaking off the rust, especially if you're already in the area.
