This dive site offers a short and enjoyable drift diving experience. The adventure begins at the "Wreck Wee Hawk", a submerged structure that serves as an excellent starting point. Divers then swim to the entrance of Lock 28, embarking on a downstream drift along the river channel. Eventually, they cross into the main channel and reach the Conestoga (Connie), where opportunities exist for exploration and looping around the area. Returning to the vicinity of the Lock entrance is also a common dive plan.
