Lake Mendota - Shorewood

★★★☆☆ (96)

Access the site via an access road at the intersection of Edgehill Drive and Edgehill Parkway. The city allows divers to open the gate and drive down to the boathouse just to unload/load gear, but you cannot leave your car down there during the dive. Find street parking along Edgehill Drive.

Best diving is to start at one of the to centermost buoys. Both are in about 13’ with lines leading to training platforms at 25’.
