This dive site is Stillhouse Hollow Lake, a popular freshwater destination in Central Texas. Dives are typically shallow, reaching a maximum of 10 meters, making it suitable for all experience levels, particularly beginners. Navigation is straightforward, generally following the contours of the lake bottom or exploring specific areas near the marina. There is no specific historical information or wrecks mentioned for the dive site itself.
Divers can expect to encounter typical freshwater species such as minnows, largemouth bass, crappies, tilapia, and catfish. Grass carp are also present, adding to the diversity of aquatic life. The aquatic plant life would consist of various freshwater vegetation common in temperate lakes, providing habitat for the fish.
The best time to visit is during the summer months when the water is warmer, and visibility, usually between 5-15 feet (1.5-4.5 meters), can be at its clearest. A dive shop at the marina on the NE side of the lake provides convenient air fills and gear, making logistics easy for divers. Both scuba divers and freedivers will find the shallow depths and calm conditions appealing for training, gear testing, or leisurely local dives.
