Drift Dive Entry Point
We visited MacDonald Park to do a scuba dive in the river. The park is great - except there are a lot of mosquitoes. There is ample parking for a dozen or more cars, boats, trailers. There are several locations to enter the river for the drift dive. The current is moderate. The river has a sand bottom about 20 to 25 ft deep. Visibility is about 5 to 10 ft. After about 40 minutes the current will carry you about 1.1 km and the river dips to about 40 ft (we use this as a signal to surface and exit from the river).
This is a good beginner level drift dive. Very little boat traffic and the current is manageable for a novice diver.
Nice launch, limited parking, mostly parking on grass and one outhouse. Oh and lots of bugs at dusk so be prepared if bugs bug you ????
Absolutely beautiful calm channels to boat in!
