The Homestead Crater formed when melting snow on the Wasatch Mountains seeped deep within the earth. Two miles below the surface, the earth’s interior heated the water. As it percolated upward, it picked up minerals, which were then deposited on the surface.
This dive site is owned by the City of Santa Rosa and requires a dive permit ($20) obtained on site. In the summer parking is $5 per vehicle. The maximum depth is 81 feet and it is a altitude dive. The water is 63-64 degrees year around so a 7mm is highly recommended but you can manage with a 5mm.
48,000 gallon pool includes “endless pool” and an underwater sound system. There is a lift for disabled divers and our fill station is right by the pool. The pool is 12 feet deep on the far end and ranges from 3.5 to 4.5 feet deep in the shallow end.
With four different diving exhibits there is lots to see in this indoor underwater playground. Come get some certification dives done, dive with the family or have a chance to get up-close and personal with some endangered and protected species you may never get to see in the wild.
The Chatfield dive site has a soft, silt bottom, thus visibility is usually quite poor, typically less than 5 feet. Depth averages 20 ft with small areas ranging around 30’ ft. A sunken sailboat with trailer, a fire hydrant, and a toilet are all connected by a rope line for your amusement.
