Crystal Lake, Irwin County Georgia

Attachment 2946

Anyone ever dive or hear of anyone diving a vacation spot from years ago, Crystal Lake or Cyrstal Beach? Would love to hear some stories or accounts on this.

From what I understand it is a sink hole that joins into the Alapaha River somewhere and that there were other sinkholes nearby.

From a forum, "Im sure many of you south Ga folks have great memories of weekends spent at Crystal Lake. Take a look at it now, it's just sad to see it like this. The part that is still holding water is down where the old caves used to be."

This misplaced piece of the Georgia coast is totally natural – apart from the water slides, of course. The sand is ninety feet deep in some places – a reminder that the Atlantic Ocean once ebbed and flowed as far inland as Macon.

Water looks way low. Sad state of our springs and natural resources.
