Description:
Gilboa Quarry is a 14+ acre limestone quarry, located in Northwest Ohio. There are wooded campgrounds encompassing over half the quarry's perimeter. Gilboa Quarry 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 of the quarry with depths of 130 plus ft is suitable for technical training. Visibility can be limited on training days, but tends to be quite good late in fall until early spring. A word of caution, don't buy more airfill then needed, you may have a hard time getting a refund for any moneys paid. 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.
