Summer Trips

York Region Scuba provides some of the best Ontario diving around! With annual trips to some of our best dives sites, you’re sure to have some great adventures! We plan between 4 and 5 weekend trips across Ontario that are open to most skill levels. Not quite there yet? Ask us about training opportunities on the trips.

Note: Due to organization requirements, you must register for free trips as well online. Thanks!

All trip pricing is for charters ONLY. Divers are responsible for accommodations, food (except Brockville BBQs), gear, fills, etc.

Please see the YRS Hotel Policy and the YRS COVID-19 Policy. Participation in any YRS trip or event implies agreement to both.

A note on fuel surcharges: with the rising costs of fuel this year, our charter operators have advised that it MAY be necessary to add a fuel surcharge prior to the trip.
