Desert Tortoise

★★★★☆ (3,114)

This is a super easy site that is perfect for newer open water divers or classes. Most of the area has gentle slopes so it does not get deep very quickly.

You will see all the typical freshwater fish species. Catfish, perch, bass, carp, and crayfish will all be found here most of the year.
