Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Dutch Springs

It's used a lot for training and open water checkouts because there are numerous platforms submerged at 25 - 30 ft. There are also quite a few attractions including a sunken fire truck, Cessna air plane, school bus, Sikorsky helicopter, trolley car, several boats and other assorted vehicles. There are also remnants of some of the quarry equipment.

This location is setup for diver training and enjoyment. A lot of divers come here on the weekends but weekdays are quiet. Parking is great and right next to picnic tables to gather by and begin your dive prep. The water is just a short walk away and entry is by concrete ramps with floating piers to make putting gear on and off a breeze. Floats mark the dive platforms just off-shore as well as sunken attractions. Get a dive slate of all of them at the gift shop. Did 4 dives on a July weekend and temp was upper 60's at surface but really dropped when you got deeper. As it is a quarry there is thermocline here and it is cold at the bottom. Not much for wildlife or reef but the attractions are cool, check out the fire truck or airplane.
