I started diving when I lived in CT (Hartford).
Dive sites, not much I drove to RI or northern MA for most of my diving.

Over the years I've had a few nice swims at Dogtooth Lake--a bit East of Kenora I think. Possibly a good dive spot?Most of the training dives (I'm a DiveMaster trainee) happen at West Hawk near the Ontario border. There is a designated and heavily marked dive area there with underwater decks at 35 and 110'. I'll dive anywhere local with something interesting to see lol.
Go Bombers indeed
@Kristina Kaschke you will find the diving here difficult and challenging.
In 2010 as as new diver I went the Caribbean, as a New England diver I was used to thick wetsuit and drysuit diving with 10 foot vis being good, often what I call bump diving (where is this, bump, found it). They complained about 100 foot vis and 83 degree bottom temp, I was shocked.
The divers there thought I was a dive master or instructor on vacation many of them having more dives than me, when I said I was a brand new diver they were shocked.
If you can dive New England you can dive anywhere.
