Sherkston Quarry

490 Empire Road, Sherkston Ontario
When: May 3rd 

Time: 10am 

cost: entrance fee on site 

Located on the coast of Lake Erie on the outskirts of Port Colborne is Sherkston Shores, a summer time resort featuring attractions including summer homes, camping, golfing, water park, mini-golf, paintball, a summertime community with stores, restaurants and of course a great dive site!

Sherkston quarry became a dive site in 1917 when the water pumps quit working one night after the workers went home. The next morning the workers showed up at work and knew they were out of a job.

Sherkston is a great place to dive when conditions are right. The best diving is often early in the season.

There is quite a bit to see including lots of fish, walls, train engines, rocks, a pump house, training platforms for students, a haunted tree, golf carts and boats, and it's a great community atmosphere.

Maximum depth 40ft. Visibility ranges from 0-65 feet.

The diving conditions are the worst during the peak summer months from July to mid October due to high seaweed and black algae which chokes out all the visibility.

Once the black algae arrives it’s a navigation and visibility challenged dive.

Admission is approximately  $10.00/diver. A waiver and proof of certification are needed so bring your C-card and diver's logbook.
