Pennsylvania's only Great Lakes shoreline, a sandy peninsula on Lake Erie at Erie, PA, and one of the few places in the state where open-water shore diving is officially permitted. Certified divers must register at the park's Public Safety Building to be briefed on which waters are open for diving. Conditions are weather-dependent, with modest visibility and shallow sandy bottoms near shore; snorkeling is prohibited in park waters.
