A White River reservoir on the Arkansas-Missouri line dubbed the 'Caribbean of the Midwest' for its clarity, with 15 mapped dive sites on the Arkansas side. Features include tall rock walls pocked with caverns, submerged oak and hickory forests, gravel points, and placed attractions such as the 'Bus Stop' wreck at 55 ft, the 'Key Hole' swim-through wall at 50 ft, sunken boats and farm machinery. Visibility is typically 15-40 ft and the lake never freezes, allowing year-round diving. Bull Shoals Lake Boat Dock is the main dive hub with air fills and training.
