Scuba Park Rules

Certification Required: Proof of at least an Open Water Certification is necessary for scuba diving at our facility, unless you are in training. Solo Diving: Solo diving is prohibited unless you possess a valid Solo Diver/Self-Reliant certification and have the appropriate redundant gear. Lake Entry Rules: Entry into the lake is only permitted on docks and designated walk-in areas, in line with our park policies. Propulsion Devices: Underwater scooters (DPVs) or any watercraft with a propeller/motor are not allowed in the lake. Lake & Alcohol: You may not enter the water if you have consumed alcohol. Our ASP Staff reserves the right to deny access to the lake or pool if a user is suspected to be intoxicated or under the influence of drugs. Floatation Device on Water: ALL guests MUST have a floatation device. Anyone swimming, snorkeling, or kayaking is required to have a life jacket or some form of floatation device. Floats can be tied around buoys to prevent them from drifting away while you submerge. Keep off the bottom/banks of lake: To maintain our lake's clarity, wading into the water or standing on the bottom in restricted areas is prohibited.

Waivers: All guests must sign a liability waiver upon entry, in accordance with our lake entry rules. Minors (under 18) must have a waiver signed by a parent or guardian and must be supervised by a guardian at all times. Check In: If staying off property and returning, all guests must check in before going around the lake to the dock site. No Lifeguard on Duty: Swim and dive at your own risk. If you cannot swim, do not enter the water or engage in ANY water activities. Alcohol Policy: Alcohol consumption is strictly prohibited while participating in any water-related activities. Alcohol may only be consumed inside your RV or at your campsite after you have finished diving for the day. If staff suspects intoxication, you will be denied access to the lake. Glass Containers: No glass bottles or containers of any kind are allowed anywhere on the property. Metal Detecting: Metal detecting is prohibited on land or in the lake unless you are conducting a specific training session authorized in advance by ASP staff. Wreck Penetration: Diving inside wrecks is strictly prohibited unless you have the proper training, specifically a Wreck Diver certification, to ensure scuba diving safety. Suspicious Activity: Please report any problems to the Dive Shop staff, adhering to our park policies.

Quiet Hours: Our noise curfew is set for 11:00 PM, so please respect your neighbors during this time. Fires: Due to park policies, our facility is located within city limits, and open ground fires are not permitted. You may bring your own fire pit (which must have a lid or guard), but you will be responsible for any damage to the grass or property. Please consult with ASP staff regarding where fire pits are allowed to be placed. Cleanliness: As part of our park policies, we ask that you pick up all tent stakes and trash before checking out. Please leave your campsite cleaner than you found it. Pets: We welcome dogs, but they must be kept on a leash at all times while you are outside of your dock site area. Please do not leave pets unattended at campsites. Dogs can only enter the water from designated sites. Walking on the banks or causing silting that affects scuba diving safety will result in you and your dog being asked to leave. Gate Hours: Remember that the main gate closes promptly at 6:00 PM on Sundays.

Speed Limit: Please adhere to IDLE SPEED ONLY while driving anywhere on the property, in accordance with our park policies. Prohibited Vehicles: ATVs, RTVs, Side-by-Sides, and loud vehicles are not allowed for recreational use as part of our lake entry rules. Allowed Transport: Golf carts, land scooters, and bicycles are welcome for transportation around the property. Parking: All vehicles must display a valid car tag. Please park in designated areas only. Unless otherwise instructed by staff, parking on the grass is prohibited to ensure safety, including scuba diving safety measures.
