Believe it or not, there is a dedicated group of scuba divers who explore Lake Lanier throughout the year.
Dive Sites
The main location for scuba diving on the lake are:
- West Bank Park which features two areas called Mask Cove and Divers Cove. You can click here to download a full emergency management plan for diving at West Bank Park.
- Two Mile Creek Park
- Cocktail Cove which is good for finding anchors, sun glasses, flooded cell phones, bathing and other wear!
Visibility
- 2 to 20 feet depending on depth, time of year and boat traffic.
- Things you’re most likely to see include sticks, mud, dead trees, rocks, stripers, bass, crappie and blue gills.
- From a boat it is possible but difficult to see a dairy farm and some bridge abutments under the water.
