...and you'll enjoy some of the Northeast's finest freshwater diving sites, with a full complement of wreck, shoal, drift, deep, and historical diving. For over three centuries Great Lakes Erie and Ontario and the Niagara and St. Lawrence Rivers have been major shipping thoroughfares. Today, the waters along the Seaway Trail are the final resting place of hundreds of ships, dating back to the late 1700's. 
New York Sea Grant is coordinating the development of the "Dive the Seaway Trail" program in partnership with the 454-mile Seaway Trail National Scenic Byway. The dive site system includes the New York State David W. Mills Submerged Cultural Preserve and Dive Site near Oswego, the Eagle Wings Dive Site near Clayton and three additional sites under development. Each will be accessible from the Seaway Trail. The New York State Seaway Trail is a 454 mile scenic route paralleling the St. Lawrence River, Lake Ontario, the Niagara River and Lake Erie. Seaway Trail Pennsylvania continues the route 50 miles along Lake Erie to the Ohio state line. A well-marked alternative to interstate highways and toll roads, the Seaway Trail leads to eye-opening treasures you might otherwise overlook. Traveling the Trail takes you to sophisticated cities, quaint villages, fishing ports, and dozens of family attractions, restaurants, accommodations and shops. Come visit us soon. We'll help make your next vacation one you'll remember for a lifetime.
