I love diving at Haigh Quarry. The staff is fantastic! The facilities are nice and clean. Plenty of room for BBQ Grills on shore. Shaded areas all along the shore for picnics in between dives. On the weekends the viz can be poor, but only during the algae bloom. During the week, the VIZ is always amazing. Many attractions underwater. Great place to test your navigation skills.

Nice site for Illinois - fairly clear except after rains. Lots of navigation and OW certs done here, not to mention other advanced certs. Has a deep section and other quarry machinery to dive through. Check out web site at www.Haighquarry.com. Mapquest give directions for listing under Haigh Enterprises. Easy to find with paved roads all the way. Concessions, showers, changing rooms. tank refills and dive service shop on site. Golf cart pick-up and delivery service for refills for extra $1. Concessions at quarry beach.

Great site, there is a wall on one half of the quarry, and a shore entry that separates the student are from the deeper portion where certified divers go. A great place to spend a Saturday!

A bit of a drive from Chicago, but well worth it. Gear rental onsite.

A great place for the beginning diver to get some experience in a somewhat controlled setting before venturing out to sea. Lots of sunken objects to explore, tons of fish and an all around good time.
