Nebraska's largest reservoir, a 30,000-acre lake on the North Platte River near Ogallala known for white-sand beaches. The Kingsley Dam area and the south shore offer the best visibility (average ~12 ft, up to 30-40 ft at times) and the dam is the most popular dive; walleye spearfishing is the main local dive activity. Deeper targets include remains of the inundated town of Lemoyne around 50 ft and an old highway bridge near 100 ft when the lake is full.

Louisville SRA, off Highway 50 beside the Platte River between Omaha and Lincoln, contains five sandpit lakes totaling about 50 surface acres. Lake 2, which has the swim beach, is the lake regularly dived by Omaha-area clubs; rangers allow divers to enter to the right of the beach area with a dive flag. Visibility runs up to 10-15 ft and the sandy pits hold abundant panfish, bass, catfish and carp.

A 134-acre cluster of sand-and-gravel borrow pits beside the Platte River near Elm Creek, considered one of the clearer dive spots in Nebraska. The first pit holds sunken boats, small planes, sculptures and training platforms placed for dive classes, and all of the lakes are open to divers. Bottoms are sandy/muddy and silt easily, so good buoyancy is important.
