Fremont Canyon is a dramatic freshwater site defined by vertical rock walls and steep drop-offs. Snorkellers can explore the submerged cliffs, which provide a unique perspective of the canyon topography. Water temperatures are consistently cold, ranging from 7-9°C during spring and early summer. Access is available via both shore and boat entries. Due to the presence of boat traffic, strong currents, and surge, this site is recommended for intermediate-level snorkellers. Facilities at the location include parking, toilets, showers, changing rooms, a rinse station, air fills, equipment rental, a cafe, first aid, a dive shop, boat charters, guided tours, and gear storage.
