About This Dive Spot

The Junkyard dive site in South Carolina offers a unique experience for divers of all skill levels. The highlight of this location is a Chinese Junk that was imported years ago and has since settled here after several sinkings. In addition to the Junk, divers can explore various sunken boats, vending machines, a tic-tac-toe table, and a Halloween-themed cemetery. The site is rich in freshwater lake fish, including bream, bass, trout, catfish, and crayfish, along with an abundance of freshwater clams that serve as a food source for local fish. The entry to the site is from the shore, making it accessible for divers looking to explore this eclectic underwater landscape.
