Let's go diving! Join us on one of
our summer fun dives ad explore some of the lakes in Minnesota and
Wisconsin. It's a great way to gain experience, maintain proficiency
between major dive trips, meet other
divers, learn about the local marine environment, and maybe find a new
diving location. Dives are hosted by one of our staff.
Pre-registration required.
Please register 48 hours prior to the
dive to let us know how many divers to expect.

We will be conducting dives to find and
remove invasive Chinese Mystery Snails which are polluting the lake.
All levels of dive experience are welcome. The average visibility is
20-30 feet and water temperature is above 65 degrees. Since the snails
are concentrated nearer the shore, the depth of the dives will be
approximately 8-22 feet. Non-divers are also welcome as snorkeling for
the snails is also an option. Divers and non-divers will need to
bring all equipment needed for a dive or snorkel. Nets and surface
markers will be provided by Brett and Mary. Lunch will also be
provided. A detailed map and further instructions will be sent out
to those who register. |

Local Diving hotspot:
Square Lake
Square Lake near Stillwater, Minnesota is one of the most popular
diving destinations in the Twin Cities area. Underwater attractions include abundant
marine life, sunken boats and canoes, and the tail section of a plane. Shallow
depths and easy lake access from two neighboring parks help make Square Lake an active
year round dive site. Both Square Lake County Park (15450 Square
Lake Trail North, Stillwater, MN) and Golden Acres RV &
Picnic Area (15150 Square Lake Trail North, Stillwater, MN) offer picnic tables,
restrooms, and refreshments during the "local diving season". More
information on this lake can be found on the Washington County Park website (see link
below). |
