Best for intermediate divers, 19-20m, boat entry.
The Elton III is a freshwater wreck located in Georgian Bay, Canada. Resting at an average depth of 20 metres, the site is accessible only by boat. Divers can expect visibility ranging from 10 to 30 metres, often allowing the structure to be viewed in its entirety. Conditions are generally calm with no current, though the site is suited for intermediate divers due to the specific hazards of cold water and potential entanglement within the wreck. Thermal protection is essential, as water temperatures fluctuate significantly between 1°C and 21°C throughout the year. Divers should carry a cutting tool and secure all equipment before descending to mitigate entanglement risks.

Given the entanglement risk inside the wreck, bring a cutting tool and avoid loose dangling equipment before descending. Water temperature can drop sharply at depth even in summer, so a drysuit or a well-fitted thick wetsuit is worth the effort for anything other than the warmest months.
