Lake Lescnaultia near Mundaring is fresh. Don't know how good a dive it is though. Nice swim on a hot day though.

Wow.. thanks everyone.

Brings back a few good memories of diving Thunder Bay, Fantasy Lake, and of when I was a PDRA Instructor in 2007 (good times up at Blanch and in Lake Norman).

Still collecting though so if anyone knows any others then please keep 'em coming. Anyone dived any European scuba parks, or know of any in Asia?

Although this isn’t a freshwater park, it is one of a kind, so I can’t think of a better place (thread) to mention this park. Bonneville Seabase in Utah is a warm water salty spring converted into 3 developed ponds and designed for use by scuba divers and snorkelers. The park is open year round and is partially covered during the winter months. Sea Base has several variety of fish; Angel Fish, Pampano, Nurse Sharks, Jacks, Lookdowns, and Puffers . Visibility is limited to about 2-20’.
