Diving at White Star Quarry is considered to be the best inland diving that Northern Ohio has to offer. White Star is place to dive that is local, convenient and understands that recreational activities are important to you. It is also a place where we can bring our non-diving friends and family with us, without having to pay to have them sit and watch.

Gilboa Quarry is the best inland place to scuba dive in the Midwest! It is a 14+ acre limestone quarry, located in Northwest Ohio. There are wooded campgrounds encompassing over half the quarry’s perimeter. It truly is a great location for diving and dive training. The quarry provides two distinct personalities: the shallow side at 5 – 65 ft provides great recreational enjoyment, while the deep side, with depths of 130 plus feet, is suitable for technical training. There are a multitude of items of interest for all divers; whether it is our large training platforms, 15 – 130 plus ft depths, or our many sunken treasures such as the Grumman airplane and Sikorsky helicopter, there is certain to be something of interest for everyone. Our aquatic life is second to none. Snorkeling for Paddlefish and on site camping or lodging for divers and their guests will round out your stay at Gilboa Quarry.

This parking for this site is about 100 yards from lake. Its an easy walk to the lake. Enter the water but don’t wade out to far as the marl bottom is very slick and starts at the very steep drop off. The local divers spread pea stone to make entry easier.
