David Gilchrist visited the underwater world at Sherkston Quarry in April 2023.
The 27-acre spring-fed quarry is a highlight of Sherkston Quarry Beach. On the quarry floor, experienced divers can explore remnants of a century-old quarry mining operation.
A must-dive for Open Water Divers due to the 50-foot depth and better visibility in the spring and fall. Practice your skills or simply enjoy the underwater scenery.

There Is next to no information on how to gain access to dive here, Do you have to rent at the resort to be able to dive here?
This is from an email I received from the resort:
We do allow diving in our quarry, you will just have to come into the Welcome Centre to sign some paperwork and pay the $10 fee to dive.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
