Toronto

Toronto sits inland on Lake Ontario, not on the coast. It’s a major urban hub with a growing diving scene focused around training and nearby freshwater options. Within reasonable reach are local dive centers that run courses and trips, mainly using indoor pools and nearby lakes for skills sessions. The freshwater environment is limited by visibility and temperature, so most divers use the city as a gateway to regional dive destinations in Ontario and southern Ontario lakes for temperate freshwater diving. If you’re visiting, plan time for training, equipment rental, and short day trips to nearby quarry or lake sites when conditions allow.
