Fathom Five National Marine Park is Canada's premier freshwater diving destination, not a traditional canoe/kayak route. The park protects over 22 historic shipwrecks in the crystal-clear waters of Georgian Bay, with exceptional underwater visibility reaching depths of 40+ meters. While some visitors use kayaks to access dive sites or tour Flowerpot Island, the primary focus is scuba diving and snorkeling among well-preserved 19th and 20th century shipwrecks. The park offers glass-bottom boat tours for non-divers and hiking opportunities on Flowerpot Island. Best diving conditions from late spring through early fall.
The difficulty of Fathom Five Marine Park varies by section. Whitewater ratings are not exact: grades change with water level and season. Verify current conditions locally before you paddle.
The best time is May-October.
Fathom Five Marine Park is located in the region of Canada.
