Friends who don't dive have told me that there are often divers out at Georgetown Lake. Has anyone been diving there?

Details, please!
 
Isn't Georgetown Lake where Sun City is located? Or thereabouts?

Yes, it is. Have you ever heard of it being a diving hot spot?
 
No, I really haven't. I think we've had some threads on it in the past, however. You might make a Search enquiry and have a look.

Since you confirmed that's where Sun City is, that leads me to believe at least part of the lake is privately owned, so that might be a sticking point. I just don't know enough about the lake itself to be more specific.

Still there, it is on the west side of Austin Ave. There is a dam there and people jump off the cliffs on the north side. the only real problem with diving there is there is no parking unless you have a handicap sticker. You could drop gear and come back just no onsite parking.
