A 28-acre spring-fed former clay quarry in Athens, East Texas, operating as a dedicated dive park since 1987. More than 25 sunken attractions sit in shallow water, including a Cessna airplane, a Lockheed airliner fuselage, boats, vehicles and training platforms. Visibility is unusually good for a Texas inland site and the shallow depth makes it a popular open-water training and underwater photography venue.
