Does anybody know of any good dive spots that aren't too far from Toronto? I'm thinking within 1-2 hour drive.
Thanks

Barrie, in Kempenfeldt (sp?) Bay. There is supposed to be a wreck called the Morrison, I think, in the bay right off the city. It can apparently be done as a shore dive but I haven't made it yet.

Are you MAD? You can't even SEE in Humber Bay let alone find the Sligo! 
What about Sherkston? At least there's a whole train down there plus all that quarry equipment...

I don't know? I've never dove on it but the link below takes you a page full of photos of the wreck and the vis doesn't look really bad to me (it's not the Caribbean). I suspect that it all depends on the flow of the Humber river. If it has rained a lot recently and the suspended sediment load of the Humber river is high then vis in the bay may be bad but it looks okay in these photos.

Actually SM, I've been told that it is alot better that it used to be.
