Ontario diving next summer...

agree with ediver
stay in the thousand isles/brockville area, there are dozens of great wrecks and charters there!!
enough to keep you challanged and busy.

eastcliffe and tobermory are too far apart, esp toby.

good luck

Do they have a web page at all? Where are the cottages and how many do they sleep?

Thanks

You'll love Brockville. We dove out of there last year with AbucS and had a blast.

I am not sure about the cotteges due to the fact i live close to brockville. But I do know that the cottege are right at the boat launch. I think there is 3 or 4 of them. I am sure if you call the 1800 number i posted they will let you know. I am not sure on a site either because they have a shop in ottawa and i just go to the shop to book. Sorry I could not help you out more.

Thanks for the info - it's good to have another option up there. We'll give them a call.

I've stayed at a few places in the area but my favourite would be Headlands Motel, Thousand Islands Parkway at Rockport. They're very considerate and diver friendly. Very clean rooms, almost newly renovated. http://www.headlandsmotel.com/

Another geat place is Bridge Island Motel, Thousand Islands Parkway at Mallorytown Road. Also very diver friendly. They have many small cabins of varying sizes. http://www.realontario.ca/listings/listing.asp?id=9724

There's also Caiger's Motel on Thousand Islands Parkway just West of Mallorytown Road, never stayed there though.

These are all within about 15-20 minutes of Brockville, 5-10 minutes to Caiger's Marina (Wayne Green http://www.islanddiver.ca/) and 5-10 minutes to Rockport (Jeff Pauze http://www.1000island.net/~andress/diveshop.html)

There's also a couple of places to camp if you'd like to save a few $. http://www.campsource.ca/parks/default.aspx?parkid=4148

I've stayed at Caigers. It is ok. Very handy if you are diving from Wayne Green's boat.

There are a few rooms at Peck's marina.

There are also dozens of bed and breakfast places in the area. Do a web search to find them. Actually I think the city of Brockville's web site has a list of accomodations and links to them.
