Juturna Springs is a shore accessible fresh water dive site, located at 10642 Woodsboro Rd, Woodsboro, MD 21798. This dive site has an average rating of 4.00 out of 5 from 2 scuba divers. Training platforms are available.

$30 for divers/$15 for non-divers.

1. Training Platforms: 3 platforms that are 16ft wide by 32ft long. There will be two buoys with downlines on each platform.
2. The Scuba Castle: It’s underwater, and it is cool. You’ll see.
3. Changing Rooms: His and Hers climate controlled changing rooms. That’s right, even in the fall and winter, you can stay warm and toasty while changing.
4. Picnic tables and Gear Stands: We have not been able to build you the pavilions yet, but we intend to provide plenty of seating and gear staging space. You are going to have to bring your own sun protection for now.
5. Bathrooms: Ok, to start we won’t have the bathhouse. We did go all out to get the nicer port-a-pots. We also got several to avoid lines. This will hold us over until we can get the bath house built. And these models really are nice.

Juturna is easy to get to via I-70 near Baltimore or I-270 just outside of Washington. The towns nearby offer food, and shopping. If you are coming from a distance and want to stay overnight, accomodations are plentiful in nearby Frederick, Maryland. The Brass Anchor SCUBA Shop is nearby for full service gear support. Juturna will have an on-site shop in the future.

Juturna is very likely to fill the void left by Bainbridge. The water is very clear by quarry standards with easy entry points. Fish were plentiful at shallow depths. The quarry itself offers a variety of depths to support beginner to advanced classes. The staff are experienced and friendly. Juturna Springs is a work in progress with the crew making great progress over the past few months in terms of building facilities. This Summer is likely to continue that trend. Stay turned as capabilities are added and more amenities become available.
