Innerkip Quarry
Shore-access quarry dive with wrecks and a mine shaft
About Innerkip Quarry
Innerkip Quarry is a spring-fed freshwater dive with a shallow shoreline setup, multiple submerged attractions and a long track record as a beginner-friendly Ontario site. The quarry mixes planes, boats, buses, cars and a sunken mine shaft, so the dive feels like an underwater scavenger hunt rather than a single route. Plan it for spring or early summer if you want the best visibility and the easiest day-use logistics. Expect cold water, simple navigation and plenty of typical Southern Ontario fish.

Scuba
A spring-fed quarry dive with a clear route to submerged attractions, easy shore access and enough variety for repeat visits.
Freedive
The shallow profile may appeal to experienced freedivers, but the quarry is mainly set up for scuba and the mine shaft adds an overhead concern.
Snorkel
Snorkelling is possible in calmer shallow water, but the quarry's main draw is the submerged structure below the surface.
