The Niagara Whirlpool is a natural whirlpool within the Niagara River located along the Canada–U.S. border between New York and Ontario. The whirlpool is in the Niagara Gorge (a gorge on that border), downstream from Niagara Falls (a group of three waterfalls on that border). The whirlpool's greatest depth is 125 feet (38 m).[1]
There are two state/provincial parks located alongside the whirlpool: Whirlpool State Park, on the USA side, and Niagara Glen Nature Reserve, on the Canadian side.
