Mansfield Dam Park

Mansfield Dam Park is situated on Lake Travis and serves as a designated scuba park. The site allows for overnight camping specifically for dive groups. Divers can access the water via an easy beach entry, with stairs available when water levels are sufficiently high. The maximum depth at this location varies due to rainfall or lack there of. This is the deepest part of the Lake and is somewhat safe from boat traffic. Thermacline is variable but almost always 55F at about 30m all year long. Visibility in the first 8-10m can be as low as 3-6 feet. Around 11m the visibility can be very good but there is no more light to see anything. Always use a lanyard and diving buoy for safety. Common fish species in the area include black bass, bullhead, crappies, catfish, sunfish, and gar, typical of Texas lake environments.
