Skin Diver Magazine calls Summersville Lake “The little Bahamas of the East” because of its excellent visibility. Visibility is twenty to forty-five feet and sometimes as much as eighty feet! The depth of the lake is zero to three-hundred-twenty-seven feet. Temperature is seventy-five to eighty-five degrees in season. The season runs from mid-May through mid September. Summersville Lake is the cleanest, clearest, freshwater lake east of the Mississippi. What is there to see? Rock cliffs, boulders, and swim throughs that run to one-hundred feet below the surface.
