Trying To Find Dive Locations Near Northeast Tennessee

[WartedEmperor]

I live in Bristol which is in Northeast Tennessee. I am trying to find some new dive locations that I don't know about that are about a three hour drive from here. I have dove in South Holston a lot and Boone and Little Wilbur a few times. I already know about the quarries that are near Knoxville, like Loch Low Minn and Philidelphia quarry. I am trying to find some new locations to that could be a day trip. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks
Alex

Martha's Quarry is about 30 minutes west of Nashville. They closed last year for rock removal/construction. but I assume they've re-opened. (but I'd check first).

Hey, Alex. I come to TRI, sometimes for a week at a time and have nothing to do. I'd love to bring my gear and buddy-up and go diving.

I will be there next week, but only for a couple of days, so I don't know if we can make anything happen. If you're interested I'd like to tag along. I'll even drive and pay for the gas. Let me know if you're interested. If not, I'd appreciate any list of places you can put together within a reasonable drive.

Thanks, bud. Let me know.
