The Gully

Located some 200 km off Nova Scotia, on the edge of the Scotian Shelf lies a sea canyon called The Gully. The gully is approximately 2 km deeper than the Scotian Shelf. It was formed thousands of years ago by erosion of the shelf at a time when sea levels were much lower. The Gully is 65 km long and 15 km wide making it the largest, or one of the largest, sea canyons on the eastcoast of North America.
Home to a wide range of creatures, the list is much to big for me to put here but the important thing is that it is a marine protected area. I tried to find more information on this and maybe a few pictures but this didn't prove fruitful in the short time I tried to do it. So if you have any interesting links or images send them to me. Cool area right off the coast of New Scotland!
