About this site
Lake Jocassee is a man-made lake of over 7,000 surface acres in western South Carolina, about two and a half hours from Atlanta and Charlotte, surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains. Trout rivers feed it clean, clear water.
The lake is over 360 feet (110 metres) deep, and visibility ranges from 20 feet (6 metres) to over 50 feet (15 metres) at depth. Dive sites include a Chinese sailboat known as the Junk, a wall, a motorcycle, a training platform, a graveyard, Jellyfish Hill, Attakulla Lodge and a steel bridge.
