Shore Diving Superior

[Lindan]

There are Lava flows straight out from shore at Temperance River state Park. In my opinion a very cool divespot. The river and lake shore are separated by a sandbar. The river has spectacular vis and reminds me a little of the Cenotes in mexico. Cool, unusual underwater ravines and structure, and about 30-40 feet deep, bowl shaped, a way cool dive! The lake superior side is sand out to the lava flows, then there is a small canyon that meanders around for quite a ways parallel to the shore. I've gone shore hop diving up and back from two harbors to Hovland and there are places to camp. The Old Hovland pier is a cool place to dive also also but the current and surge can be strong. We've found some nice antique artifacts from coal to old bottles and dishes dumped off of the old ferry boats. Linda
