St. Clair River on the Ontario-Michigan border is an advanced freshwater dive in one of the Great Lakes' busiest shipping channels. The river's strong current creates challenging but exciting drift diving conditions, carrying divers past a variety of submerged artifacts, lost cargo, and remnants of the region's maritime history. The riverbed features interesting geological formations and freshwater species including sturgeon, walleye, and smallmouth bass. The current requires advanced planning, proper safety equipment, and experienced support boats. The river's industrial history and powerful flow create a uniquely different Great Lakes diving experience.
