Quarry Swim Test

Everything you need to know for a safe and enjoyable visit at the quarry

⚠️ Important:

The quarry is a wonderful but unique swimming spot and these rules are to ensure everyone is safe. Due to the deep dark waters and the limited shallow area it is required that anyone under the age of 18 must pass a swim test.

You may only take the test once per day. If you pass you re-testing is not required.

Swim Test

Step 1: Swimming Proficiency

  • Swim approximately 80 yards using a crawl or breaststroke

  • Maintain proper from throughout

Important:

  • You cannot touch the bottom or hold on to anything at any point

  • Doggy paddle and backstroke are not allowed

  • Using an unapproved stroke or stopping during the swim will result in a failed test

Step 2: Treading Water

  • Tread water for 3 minutes

  • Your chin must stay above the water

Important:

  • Your head cannot lean back - you must “wear the water like a necklace”

  • Not maintaining this position for the full 3 minutes will result in a failed test
