Brockville Dive Bonanza Weekend with Dan’s Dive Shop August 16 – 18, 2024

Dive Brockville and the 1000 Islands with us as we take the plunge into warmer waters with our Brockville Dive Bonanza Weekend. Dive the epic freshwater shipwrecks and wall dives of the Thousand Islands. This area is know for some of the largest fresh water shipwrecks and its moderate water temperature. The St Lawrence Seaway is constantly moving water which mixes the water top to bottom giving even temperatures with little to no thermocline at depth. The dive weekend includes 2 days of boat diving and 2 nights accommodations.
